3.0 out of 5 stars great for running in the rain..., December 29, 2004

... but not a downpour. The case isn't waterproof, but it is highly water resistant. The width of the case is suspect, however. It's like they used Mr. Universe as a model. I've got big fat upper arms and my arm is still too tiny for the giant width of this arm band.

The controls are not accessible (although they are visible) when sealed up in the clear plastic compartment, meaning you have to fiddle your fingers through a couple of layers and fumble to change volume or songs while running/jogging.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Product But...., August 20, 2005

I primarily run outside and this is a great product for that. It stays on my arm and I have no problem accessing the wheel. There are 2 flaws, it is weather resistant but not waterproof. I never use it in anything harder than a light rain and the case is very snug so the stitching gets stressed. I've had mine for 4 months and I use it 4-5x/week and the stitching has started to give in one spot. I have restitched it, but I would've expected it to last longer.

I have only gotten the chance to use the armband a few times, however, I have noticed no serious problems. Depending on how much you perspire, may be a cause for concern. The armband seems to retain quite a bit of moisture, but doesn't seem to pose a threat to the ipod.
