Subject: underwater mp3 players

My wife just bought me one and wanted to know if anyone has used these and what you think of them.

I find swimming God-awful boring and wouldn't mind having something to do besides count laps but I also don't need another $150 toy that never gets used.

Do you have the SwiMP3 player or the Oregan Scientific one? I have a SwiMP3 and here's my review:
Pros:
- small and easy to carry (attached to your goggles)
- easy to use (no software necessary, even though it came with one)
- the goggles it came with are quite nice.
- Not bad sound quality (better when underwater)

Cons:
- expensive for limited storage space
- I wish the volume adjustment button is more responsive.
- sound pads tend to slip from my temples and onto the pinna when I swim sideways. Quite annoying cus' the sound pads produce a loud sharp pitch noise. (may be I should be wearing ear plugs)
