Great accessory to the Ipod Shuffle especially for runners!,

I'm not sure if this is an absolute must-have accessory since the Ipod Shuffle will apparently clip-on to clothing securely, but I don't want this thing flapping around on my clothes while I'm running.
I bought this to compliment my Ipod Shuffle and it was the perfect hands-free solution. It's comfortable, not itchy and is much better than running with a 30g Ipod in-hand or at all. Unless you have the biceps of a baby or the Incredible Hulk, it should fit just fine.
As someone else pointed out, the on/off and shuffle-play switches are not accessible once you insert the Ipod into the jacket. You can't see the charge/on light either. I can only imagine the reason Apple did this. Maybe to lessen the chance of sweat seeping into the nooks and crannies of your Ipod. They could have just put a clear protective window over the switches like they did the main buttons. Who knows?
Instead of taking the Ipod in and out of the jacket everytime I turn it...Read more

Good Quality; OK Design.,

The quality of the armband and the Action Jacket seem nice. The issue is that neither the power on/off switch nor the shuffle on/off switch on the side of the shuffle are accessible. There are labels on the side of the Action Jacket indicating where the switches are, but with the neoprene cover you really can't switch them on/off and if you do manage to you have know way of knowing their position. I assume I will be cutting a small whole so i have access to those switches. One nice thing is that you can use the arm band separate from the jacket, which is the main reason I bought this anyway (for the armband that is).

i believe this is a generation 2,3 armband, but it's a horrible fit w. the gen. 4 shuffle - i realize you can cut holes in the cover, but c'mon... the main cover for the player is poorly designed and not great in the quality dept. i much prefer the creative zen stone player, w. the rubberized cover and armband - and it has a screen and great features, all for the same price...
