Subject: RE: Waterproof MP3 player I have used the Swimp3 in every iteration that it has existed and to me I always come back to it. Simply put I don't want to mess around with mp3 mid-set so it is the only one I know that is going to be secure at stay put. The ear-bud type ones can always wiggle lose and that is not acceptable. Granted I only use my swimp3 for recovery swims or an hour long-time trial I do about once a week. The one problem I have with this device is durability - so far they have been good about replacing them but it is a PITA to do so. Right now mine is at Finis waiting to come back and they upgrading it to the new 2g version. If I was purchasing one I would purchase new for the warranty and also put it on an American Express card. Despite the durability issue I always come back to this device. One recommendation though is not to get to accustomed to swimming with an MP3. Don't get me wrong I love music more than most and have to bike and run with it but swimming I find is all about the structured workout and I find with an MP3 player that swim workouts get to unstructured. |
