But what if you want to swim laps? I think this product is awesome. I just wish they had it when I was on the swim team.

I bought one so I could listen to audiobooks while swimming and brought extra shuffle just in case my shuffle breaks and the shuffles are not being made any more because the ear phones, waist band and case cost more than the shuffle.
To scared to take my ipod video swimming

Wish I had it when I washed a pair of pants with my shuffle still in them. The shuffle still works but the usb part is not recognized any more.
