For my money, iHome makes some of the most innovative and handsome iPod accessories around. And I don't want this just because it comes in pink, though, okay, that did factor into my decision.

This portable water-resistant (sand-proof?) iH19 case fits iPods or any MP3 players. Listen through headphones or speakers, attach it to your bike, stroller, exercise equipment (like that's gonna happen) or, in my case, take it to the beach.

With the built-in remote, I figure I won't have to move off my towel. Better yet, a percent of it's sales are donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Only $69.99 from iHome.
