ipod 5.5 case or shuffle

[donga]

so my ipod 5.5 gen iskin clip has broken while working out. should i get a new case or just get a shuffle.

i figured that since the shuffles are so cheap, and a good case would prob be $25, might as well get a shuffle (which doesn't really need a case). or i could prob find a cheap case here on MR or craigslist...

what do you think?

do you need one?

do you really need a shuffle? or do you just want it?
i have one too and i use it for when i run, instead of carrying around my touch.
i never really use cases anyways

well, i think having music while running keeps me going, thus, i'm looking for something to fit that, and the shuffle is an option.

i enjoyed the 1g shuffle before it died and hope to replicate its success.

i don't think i would ever use it beyond running b/c no screen, capacity, etc.

any other opinions?
