iPod Nano question

Well I just bought a brand new black 2 gig Nano off of eBay... should be here around Tuesday... I was just wondering what are some cool must have accessories?

And whoever has a Nano... do you like it?

EDIT:

Also what kind of protective case do you think would actually protect the iPod the best? I have seen silicone, aluminum, leather, etc.

I really like this black aluminum one but don't know if it would work real good:

Thanks

A guy at work has the Nano, and he wears a leather case arund his neck on his Boeing badge cord.

The leather case is a flip open one, and it will protect it more than a silicone case like I have for my iPod Video.

There are lots of acc. links in the link above.

I still like my case though.

Do yourself a favor, ditch the stock iPod earbuds.
Get these.
Fink bought them, and so did I.

Lots of deep bass, and they are cool.

i sell a thin very durable clear material you can put on it and it will protect it from scratching, because no matter what case you have it will scatch without it

I have the one for my 30gb iPod and I really like it since it fits very snug and adds a little padding around the iPod.

Alright well I guess what I am really looking for is some sort of cradle for it that will just plug into a cigarette light...

And when it is plugged in it gets charged and is an FM transmitter...
Something like this... anyone have one or know a good brand?
Oh and remember this is for the little Nano!

Alright thanks a lot Bob... and that made me think so I went out to my 4Runner and just pulled the line out of my XM radio and put it into my old mp3 player and it worked perfect... so I guess I will just do that...

Alright so took care of the FM transmitter now the next question!

For all of you who have car chargers for their iPod:

What brand do you have?
What brand do you recommend?
Does it cause any static?

I have an incase car charger. The cool part is that it will also charge from a wall socket so that when I travel I only need 1 charger. http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPL....8.25.7.11.2.3
