I had a chance to compare Nokia N91 with my MPX220 (a friend of mine owns it). We have loaded each phone with the same mp3's and used the same headphone for the test. Surprisingly MPX220 kicked the butt of N91. I really dont understand how a very well known mobile phone brand like Nokia produced such a phone. It was launched as musicphone. It is heavier and larger, has 3.5mm stereo jack connection but sound quality is too bad for my tastes. It sells 3 times more than MPX220 in my country as well. So my advice is dont ever think of N91 as a musicphhone.

Now if only someone would release a hard drive based media player phone cyborg.....

Milkpowder, I am doing the same as you. I purchased a gun case because it fit the needs for what I am putting into it. I just haven't figured out how I am going to configure all my components yet. It is the best thing for traveling, but I have a feeling that getting it thru security at an airport might prove difficult (IMPOSSIBLE). Anyone who has a lot of stuff should get a case like yours or mine and store everything in it to protect their investments. There is a company out there called ???. I forget their name. I'll look tonite. They have a website where all they do is build metal cases for everything from glasses to concert speakers. You can find a case or cases to match your exact specs and buy one. I ordered mine with plain black foam so I could cut out the holes I needed for my cellphone, camera and audio gear in one briefcase. The case I purchased was advertised as a case to hold 2 high caliber pistols. They come with a combo lock and key. They come in all types of finishes and they were pretty cheap. Mine was like $45 for a 14x16x4 case with special inserts.

I recommend it for anyone who has multiple amps or DAPs. Or buy two cases 1 for amps and 1 for daps and maybe a 3rd for headphones. I'll post the website tonite or tomorrow for everyone to check out and a picture of my case.

My question is that ilounge said that the headphone port was too small to accomodate anything but stock pack-ins. Have they modified this? Thats not that important as I plan to use with Cryo dock any problems with that fitting?



Well, I just received my 30gb YoTank today and I can confirm that the TURBODOCK II does NOT fit with this case. Neither do the E500's, the UM2's, Super.fi 5's, or the Super.fi 5EB's. CRAP! I'm going to contact YoTank to see if they can customize my case a bit to allow for these connections.

I have the 60GB iTank and all of those things fit. HOWEVER, I did have to make a slight mod. I took out the felt lining at the bottom of the case and replaced it with a sheet of paper. Voila - everything fit.

The iTank Nano, however, was completely useless without my making some cuts to the metal.

That's interesting. Perhaps the specs for the 60gb are slightly different than the 30gb? I emailed them today to see if we could work something out; if not, it's going back, which is unfortunate since it really is a nice case.

Oh, and taking the padding out didn't do the trick; the cut-outs are physically too small for any of my IEMs or the Turbodock II (which I believe is very similar in shape and nice to the dock connectors used on the Cryo Docks).

Time will tell. Hopefull we'll work something out.
