4.0 out of 5 stars Good protection, but "heavy", March 12, 2005

By	S. Allen - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought the Shuffle Sport Case mostly to provide some protection from the elements when running outdoors or on the beach. For this goal, it works great. The seal it provides around the Shuffle is tight, and I can't see rain or sand getting into it without some serious effort. That said, the case is heavier than I expected. That's not to say that it's particularly heavy, but when switching from using the Shuffle with the included lanyard to the Sport Case, there's a noticiable increase in weight. This isn't a deal-breaker, as it still serves its purpose, but I don't think I'll be using the Sport Case full time like I expected due to this issue. Part of the appeal of the Shuffle is that it is so light that you don't even know you've got it on. That isn't true when it's in the Sport Case.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for activities outside in the elements, February 25, 2005

By	M. Alt (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

With the rainy weather that Southern California has been having lately, I wouldn't have dared to bring my tunes along when I run. That was until I got an iPod Shuffle and the Sport Case. I usually run with my Shuffle attached to my arm with the Armband accessory. But with all the rain we've been having, that wouldn't have worked out that well. I picked up the Sport Case and have taken it on a few rainy runs. Let me say that my Shuffle goes through even some heavy downpours staying nice and dry. There is a rubber gasket sealing the two halves together. There is even a gasket in the headphone jack port. The seals are pretty tight - it will keep out most water (unless you try to go swimming or something!). The unit even comes with a short headphone cord extension if, like mine, your normal headphone jack is a right-angle jack (like the extension that comes with the Sony MDR-EX71).
If your like me and have to do activities in the rain sometimes, and really want to listen to your favorite tunes, pick up a Shuffle along with this handy little Sport Case.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Very Useful Accesorie, Might Just Save You $100-$150, February 13, 2005

By	iSplaz (USA) - See all my reviews

I had dropped my iPod shuffle in the sink. If I had not just purchased the fancy and stylish sports case, I would've been doomed to the fate of blaming the dirty dishes for the desctruction of my iPod shuffle. The ads don't lie, it seriously water-proofs your ipod shuffle. Sure, because the controls are still available it gets a TEENSY wet, but not enough to make it sputter out into un-usable land. A great accesorie, get it before its too late.
