“We introduced CandyShell for the iPhone 3G earlier this year and it quickly became one of our top selling cases,” said Irene Baran, CEO of Speck. “We’re proud to say Apple enthusiasts are loving the case’s great looks, vivid colors and the seamless combination of a sleek outer hard shell with a shock-absorbing rubberized interior.”

Never before has the flexibility and shock-absorption of a soft rubberized case been combined with the durability and scratch protection of a sleek outer hard shell in a seamless single-piece, easy-to-use design. CandyShell's soft, colorful rubberized interior helps keep the iPod touch (2nd Gen) insulated from life's bumps and drops, while the shiny and sleek outer hard shell protects it from scratches and lets you slip it in and out of pockets easily. CandyShell has generous openings and access to all ports, controls and sensors, including soft-touch rubberized touch-thru power and volume control covers. The CandyShell can be docked through the bottom opening. The case also includes a cleaning cloth and removable screen protector film for extra scratch protection.

CandyShell is available now at Apple Stores and online at www.apple.com and www.speckproducts.com for $34.95.
