Look at this beauty. It's an iPod 5G case carved out of a single piece of hardwood. Not sure if the wood is sustainably hunted or not, since some of the links on the Miniot website declined to work for me, but there's no denying their loveliness. You can also get one of these iWood (yes, yes, very clever) cases for your nano. They're cleverly designed, with hidden hinges and a magnetic clasp to keep the case shut. Once you've selected the type of wood you want to use, you can get them mongrammed with your initials and choose something witty to have engraved inside.

I've always been told that magnets and hard disks are like vampires and garlic. How does the iWood get around this?
