Tune Belt intros new armband for iPod shuffle
Tune Belt has announced a new “Open View� style armband for the iPod shuffle. The lightweight armband provides protection for the shuffle and securely holds the device so it’s out of the way during active listening.
The armband features a clear protective mylar window that lets you operate the shuffle’s functions through it, and a flap to hold down excess earbud cord. It’s adjustable with one hand up to 18 inches and sells for $16.95.

These are good armbands. I currently use the generic “MP3 Armband” from them. This one does seem a little bit more desirable, but for now, I’m fine with the one I have.

It looks really nice, and if I can find one in the UK i might buy it…
Recently i’ve been using a similar armband called an elastic band. I find the slightly thicker ones work best (offering more friction on the Shuffle unit) and they can generally be found for free at most office-based places of work
-actually, it works really well, i’ve been rock-climbing, mountain biking and (short distance) running (away from things) without the shuffle falling off :-D
