iPod mini or iPod shuffle, case, cover, speakers, accessory

I am about to get a new iPod mini, or even maybe an iPod shuffle and I'm wondering about the difference of these two with reagard to accessories. I'm next going to look at all the available accessories like cases, covers, skins, speakers, battery, etc.

I'm going to find out what is available for these newer iPods, I know that for the 20gb iPod and the 40gb iPod there were more, ipod cases, iPod skins, and iPod covers available. You know if there's not as much stuff that goes with the newer iPods, iPod Mini and iPod shuffle, I guess could influence my desicion a little.

I guess the price of the iPod mini and iPod shuffle are quite a draw for me. As long as the cost of an iPod case or iPod cover and maybe iPod speakers is not more expensive than the ones for the 20gb iPod & 40gb iPods. I'm going to post the results of whatever I found out.
