IRiver is coming out with a waterproof MP3 case, that can be used with one of their MP3 players. The player itself is quite small, and the case fits around it, with waterproof headphones and all (going to the IRiver site you can see a picture). I'm considering buying it (wouldn't it be great to swim with music?)
Has anyone tried waterproof radios, mp3 players or anything similar to it? I wonder how it would work if I could secure the player to my goggle strap... It certainly seems like a great idea in theory!

Here is the exact link for it... www.iriveramerica.com/.../svi700.aspx if you click on "buy now" it says you have to preorder and it'll ship by December 14. It's $99 just the case (you pay more for the player). I couldn't find any other sites that sold the case, but I'm sure once it's out other retailers might have them for a better price...
I checked out the 1GB player on other sites and was able to find it for $220 online. So it'd be about $320 for both combined. If it works, it's certainly worth it, even though the price is a bit steep, but just the fact that you can fit about 1,000 songs, and you can use it OUT of the water as well (which you can't with the other finis player), I guess it makes up for the difference in price, and from what I've seen the IRiver player is smaller than the mini Ipod (which I currently have).
I'm very tempted now!!! I might just get and anxiously wait for it!
