I agree with lavar78 on this point too. I upgrade my iPods pretty frequently and by being meticulous, I always get top dollar for them which allows me to get the 'latest and greate…

wow, this would be a field day for some pick pocketer who opened a wallet he just stole and found a iPod nano inside!

here's your wallet

Yeah, I saw that wallet. It's not really a wallet so much as an iPod case with space for some other stuff. You would have to fold up your money and it would probably only hold a fe…
