Do you siwm with your ipod?

My cousin is getting into tris and I figure that at least for training she might like to swim with her ipod.

Can you recommend a waterproof case/headphone combo? I found this one

but I think she has a 2nd Gen nano - I'm trying to find out.

THANKS!

I used to use a case, and it was okay, but I'll never go back since I discovered swimman (http://www.swimman.com/). It's a waterproofed shuffle and the best headphones I've found. I just clip the shuffle to my goggle straps. Bonus: I don't have to worry about any damage from sweat or rain when I run.

Warning: It is NOT cheap, but it is soooo worth it. But... I guess it's not good for a gift. So then I'll say that the ottorbox had the best case, but I'd consider getting the headphones from swimman.

oooohh that does look cool! But yeah - kinda pricey :(

I personally don't swim with an ipod, but Ive looked into it too. I own just a little 1GB shuffle for running thats just $50. You can buy a waterproof case and headphones for it, $30 or so from the apple store (cheaper on ebay) and waterproof headphones.



The cheapest one on apple.com is for $130 for the nano
