where can i get more info on that
that **** looks more dope than any other case I have seen
I want that for my X5L

but does it cause any kind of over heating?
also
the X5L has its play and on/off buttons on the right side and the headphone jack on the left side towards the top corner.

so how partical can one of these tin cases can be?

Well before anything else.. Your X5L is FAR too big to fit in an altoids tin. Secondly the ONLY player i know of that fits is the zen micro. Sorry for the bad news man, but i think you are out of luck.

actully
go to Costco
they got these mother packs of altoids...one big huge tin.

try it out...it might fit your X5.

But yeah...LOL, I'm surprised to see you thought your X5 would fit in a regular sized altoids tin.
Even if you havent seen an altoids tin (regular size) in person, you'd think you'd have at least seen the size of a micro vs. your X5...

oh well, give the supersize a try. Costco has it for sure...and you can try Wal Mart too

This is why you line the thing with foam.
