Useful item Aug 29, 2008
By Manny Ortez
"M.O."
Yes, like many reviews have pointed out, the armband will not fit around a large arm, so if you're planning on weightlifting, look into a belt-clip-on. One thing I've notice though that worried me a little: it soaks up sweat from your arm, through the neoprene. I've noticed a little condensation through the plastic seethrough screen, near the top slit. Nothing excessive though, and when I removed the iPod, I didn't see any sweat streaks on the metal backing. However, sweat and the salts it contains are VERY bad for any kind of electrical device.
Simple solution though...I also bought the Griffin hard-shell case
[...]
Get this also, and use it WITH the Belkin armband
When you decide to work out with the armband case, place the iPod Touch in the BACK part of the clear shell case, and insert the whole thing into the armband case,minus the front part of the shell casing (it fits quite comfortably, without ripping or tearing). This will protect it from any sweat the neoprene soaks up when you're running or working out.
In addition, the clear-shell half-casing also fills out the armband pouch, making it easier to access the touch screen of the ipod!
Then when you're done, simply remove the ipod and plastic casing from the armband, snap the front of the casing back on, and you're ready to roll!

Too fragile to hold an iTouch Apr 21, 2008
By Bing Sun It looks like a good quality stuff. But maybe it's just me unfortunately got the only single below-average-quality one: After my first 40minutes jogging, left lower corner broke open. Just in case my iPod will not fall out next time I jog, I superglued it. I hope this will work as overall this stuff looks nice. My only suggestion might be, take caution and have a superglue at hand.

iPod touch armband May 05, 2008
By Jorge Alberto Rodriguez This is a very helpful item, when you want to go and run, or do some exercises, but, its belt is very short, so if you have a big arm you will fill it like very tight. The company should do this item in different sizes.

Good buy, good product Jan 12, 2008
By A. Tran This is a great product. My touch stays firmly in the case. I usually wear it upside down only because I rather have the headphone jack facing upward rather than downward. The case hold the ipod touch firmly in the holder. If there was an issue it would be taking it out of the case. It's so securely sitting in the case that it may make it hard at times to remove the ipod. If I had to make another choice I would probably spend a little more to get the same ipod holder but the one with the case for the headphones.

Excellent product Jun 09, 2008
By James A. Stutzman Bought for 16G ipod touch. Use for jogging and biking 5-6 days per week for 2 months now. Has held up great, no rips or wear noticed yet. Holds in place on arm great. Holds ipod great too. Key holder is nice touch. I have average arm size. Arm band is long enough to go around bulky sweatshirt sleeve if kept closer to elbow. Thought I would have issues with hole for earphones prying audio jack out of receptacle but has not been a problem. Touch screen and menu button work fine through plastic window.
Negatives: I stick my license in behind ipod just in case. One time license kept "climbing" out for some reason. Never happened again. Also, plastic window tends to peel any screen protectors off.
UPDATE: I have been using this arm band an average of 4 to 6 days per week for over a year now, even through winter. It is still excellent. Slots for ipod and key have not ripped, plastic window is still clear and not ripped, velcro has not begun to pull off or wear out.
