Here is an electronic translation I found at engadget.com. No indication of price or availability. It's probably a one-off the owner(s) did for themselves. But enough detail for making your own seem to be there...if you can decipher the babble.

- Armor plate for iPod Photo.
When some days ago, you wander about ????, there was very sad
iPod. Buying, at 2nd day, being defeated to the pressure of the
commuter train, the liquid crystal cracked, big dent did to also the
stainless steel case the rear. So the synchronizer of playback and Mac
of tune with the notion that where, was transacted with about 10000 or 20000 it is possible.
Because I have lived in Kanto, pressure of that horrible commuter
train has been experienced. When you take the position at inside of
car of car and make a mistake, the pipe for the handrail eats to
??? the abdomen. When exactly there is iPod there, there is no
one it is aegagropila, probably will be. But, because the stainless
steel case of iPod 1mm rank is a thickness, it accompanies and to
frame does how, just it hit to something, it is probably will be?
With with the notion that where you say, even at the time of Kanto
Seibu and Tobu commuting rush we had decided to make the case which is not discouraged. Naming, "Armor plate for iPod Photo (the armor glass for iPod Photo)" is. Because I have only iPod Photo, it made iPod Photo dedication.
(Being difficult to rust, the aluminum A5052 where hardness is high
relatively in the material, is superior corrosion-resistant) you used.
Basic configuration to divide into the case and the cover, after
inserting iPod in the case, the screw you stop the cover. In the
state, function of thing and above thing and the picture where it can
point the headphone see and the synchronization with Mac is possible with the cable of ? ? thing, thing and the standard which can operate the click wheel is implemented. Thickness of the material can stop with 5mm, perhaps, the pistol round about of 22 apertures if basically, probably will be.
The case, both the cover, the beautiful cutting mark was left inside.
The outside polishes in ????, almost has become like the
mirror surface finish. Make-up correcting extent it is possible.
It is the place where iPod Photo was inserted. The ? - with it is
good thing, but the size ? ? of iPod which the apple has
published, it is very random. IPod Photo at width 61.0 mm, normal iPod is 60.9 mm, but size precision at that ? ? 0.1 mm unit is
guaranteed depending, that it is the thing which is said being to
think it does, but width 62 mm there was my iPod Photo, with survey.
Trusting the numerical value which the apple publishes, when it makes the case, it was about it stops being settled absolutely in.
Because is with thickness increases considerably, it can become
independent.
It is the hole of the headphone terminal. In order also the headphone
of SONY which I have (the connector is bent perpendicularly) to be
able to point, being to gain the cavity on left and right, it does,
but the bamboo grass ? increase it is was after all in the size
difference.
It is the place where it pointed to the genuine headphone. You can use without problem.
It is the place where it pointed to the headphone (person who is not
bent) of SONY. This is there is no problem.
It is the hole of the synchronizer connector. Surveying with the
ruler, because it has made the plan, it cannot put out the precision
with respect to substance and above 1mm. Also this hole about 0.5 mm approaches on.
But, oh there is also a callous with the hole as a large texture, the
genuine synchronizer cable is enabled without problem.
When you see entirely, it is such feeling.
Those where the cover is locked are the hexa- screw (cap screw) of M3.
The head of the screw is settled with such feeling.
Also the screw of opposite side is such feeling.
The screw of the dummy having been attached also the case to, this
about 1mm the head that has tried comes out.
This way, when placing on the desk, in order for the case directly not
to hit to the surface of the desk, function of the foot is performed.
Is in order if possible to try not to do damage to the case.
It is the fit part of the case and the cover, but the projection is
gained on cover side.
In order for the projection to be settled on case side, ??? is
inserted.
When you see from opposition, it is such feeling. This projection and
??? being to be only 0.1 mm, do size difference vis-a-vis
diameter 6 mm, but as for the case and the cover there are no many
pains and ??? in addition to being fixed, the side there is no
either being shaky. It is the working accuracy which should be
surprised.
Just the part where the hold switch hits about 1 mm the wall surface
is shaved.
The hole was bored through the place where the apple mark is visible
on the rear. This, when fetching iPod Photo from the case, is the hole
in order to push out from rear with the finger.
As for thickness of the wall surface there are 5 mm.
Thickness of the cover there are 5 mm.
Angle of 45 degrees was acquired to the hole of the liquid crystal and
the click foil. The processed mark is beautiful very, is.
When content unites in empty state, it becomes such feeling. The
difference of the inside and the external surface finish is recognized
well.
It is weight, but a lot of aluminum is used with says, becomes
considerable weight. There are also 446 g. At the critical moment use
in the weapon for shock it may, is.
The liquid crystal surface and the click foil surface become
defenseless, but because this when operating, by any means is the
necessary part, there is no ginger. You directing the surface of the
cover to your own body side, if it directs case side outside the body,
suitable pressure being imposed, there are no times when damage
reaches to iPod probably will be. Perhaps, pressure is applied, mono
is broken, or your own body which catches that pressure are done or,
you think that it is either one.
Simply as for being regrettable, as for me presently it is walking
commuting, it means as for abnormal pressure of the extent where iPod is broken being imposed because first it is not, perhaps probably is not the opportunity which uses this case.
For a while, it polishes, spacing, seeing, assuming, that ?? it is
attached, using, being useful, because densely it is that instrument,
the kana which you transfer to the Kanto person it may use ding dong, or how do -. There it is the place, it was not thought well -.
Because lastly, the plan is left, as for the one which has interest to
this ->
