Nano Cases from Old Cassettes: Digital Meets Analog
6:53 am, October 10th, 2008, Nicole Martinelli
Seek shelter for your iPod Nano with a case made from a recycled cassette tape.
These one-of-a-kinds cost $45 each, with a $5 rebate for viral marketing. Only about a dozen are left.
They’re from Contexture Design in Vancouver, the smart folks behind cases made from old 45s for iPods. Those have already disappeared faster than mini-bruschettas at a press conference, however.
Contexture’s Nathan Lee told us the 45 iPod classic cases were a limited edition project and that they don’t plan in cranking out any more.
So get these while you can. Similar cases for newer Nanos to come, so keep an eye out.

Isn’t the whole point of the nano how small it is? Why would someone make a case that takes up more space than the nano itself?
