Rating: - So good we had to replace it!
I originally purchased this arm band from Apple when I bought my wife an iPod mini back in 2003. She is quite the fitness enthusiast, so the arm band got regular use over the past 4 years. The plastic finally failed, which I suppose is to be expected. She really like this product and asked me to find a replacement. Unhappy with fully enclosed arm bands made of neoprene, I simply ordered the same arm band, which is no longer available in Apple Stores. I expect it to last longer than the mini.
Rating: - There is a better and much cheaper alternative
There is no need to buy this armband. Just get yourself a length of two-sided velcro (There is a kind that sticks to itself.) Wrap it around your arm and attach your iPod to it using the belt clip that came with it. This technique is especially good for those of us with large muscular arms where standard arm bands (like this one) won't fit.
Rating: - I hate it!
Either I am idiot or this product is very poorly designed! It takes forever to get it just right, so that it won't slip off and still it feels uncomfortable and not quite right. Now they have them in sorts of colors, don't buy it, you'll just get annoyed everytime you want to use it, like me.
Rating: - The clip is better
I bought the armband when I got my mini ipod. However, the belt clip that comes with the iPod is perfect to clip to my shorts while jogging. You don't need this large, clunky armband!
Rating: - Destined for the back of a drawer
I found the armband to be uncomfortable and inconvenient. I think the upper arm is just a bad place to carry an iPod. The added weight is distracting when I'm running. Even worse is any activity that requires me to flex my biceps at all, so lifting weights is out. Put it on too tight, and I constrict the muscle. Loosen it a little, and the band slips off. There is no happy medium. Also, the earphone cord gets in the way more when it's leading from my arm.
