1.0 out of 5 stars Oregon Scientific Waterproof MP3 Player, July 2, 2006

I purchased this item in May for use in deep water aerobics. When it arrived, I found that the battery would not hold a charge for more than a few moments and consequently I was unable to program it or download music. Also, the backlighting was so poor that the screen could barely be seen. I never used it in the water, but sent it back immediately to Amazon who credited my account quickly.

I have since purchased an IPod Nano with an H2O waterproof housing and earphones which work like a charm in the deep water. The cost of the IPod ensemble was triple that of the MP3, but worth every penny in satisfaction.

This item is NOT waterproof. It failed 20 minutes into my first time in the pool. It was properly closed and sealed (you fully tighten 1 screw to accomplish this). I was swimming laps and the player was never more than 2/3 meter below the surface (though it was fully immersed for that 20 minutes). It quit playing and when I examined it I could see moisture behind the glass on the interface screen. Even after opening drying it for a week, it never recovered. I returned it and received a full refund. This player may work for activities where water immersion is short and intermittent, but if you're looking to lap swim, best try a different "waterproof" player.

This is great - just as advertised. I sent it as a gift to my daughter and she is thrilled with it. Arrived ahead of time! Thanks for efficient service.
