Looking for a good case to get for my new iPod while jogging. Anyone have a suggestion? Marware seems to be the most popular. But they are a bit pricey. Also, with the humidity we get during the summer... Anyone know of a case that will protect it from the runner's sweaty body?

Folks have also recommended using that little remote rather than fumbling with the unit itself... how much more "sweat proof" is the adapter? Or is it just cheaper/easer to replace the adaptor vs the Ipod...

Thanks in advance.

Incase Belt for iPod, which can be purchased on apple website is the best running, excersise, belt that I have purchased. It has a spot for you headphones to come through and is very comfortable. Also it is small to. It fits the new ipods to. So hope this helps.

Get the Marware armband. The problem with wearing an iPod around your waist while running is that you're exposing the device to repetitive shocks during high-impact exercise. You'll probably move the device to your hip (so it doesn't keep hitting you in the b's), where the shock is even greater.

Better to wear the device on your arm, specifically around your bicep. Worth the extra couple of dollars.
