Okay, so at the meet a few weekends ago, my mom bought me a swimp3 player. I didn't swim all last week (first week off since August) and last night I thought I had loaded some songs onto the player. So I head off to the pool tonight, and find it CROWDED...so I sit in the hot tub for a bit figuring out how to hook it up to my googles...head over to the pool...jump in...turn it on..lights blinking..no music.
Thats a quick way to ruin a mood let me tell you. I was so excited.
It's kinda annoying that you can't tell if the songs are really on there, or if it's working until your in the pool. Just for clarification among those of you who have this...when the unit is turned on...is the green light suppose to blink? or be solid? because mine keeps blinking slowly?

1-Charge it hooked on to the computer.
2- Fill it up with music with drag and drop on the Explorer. It has a lot of space.
3- Use a good ear plug. It is essencial to good listening that your ears are not hearing anything, not even the water! It will work without the ear plug but the more you "plug" your ear (silicone is best) the better the sound will be.
4- Notice there is a volume control. Do this with your ears completely in the water to test it and get the right volume. It could be to high!
5- When swimming the sound varies according to where your ear is, inside or outside the water. You'll get used to it.
6- Last but not least. Take a snorkel to the pool and if it is heated or warmed, just relax in a corner while listening to your music. People will think you are doing some type of breathing drill. Take care, and only listen to good music! (Sinatra, Elvis, Ella, Louis, Oscar, Basie, Ellington, Davis, Gillespie and so forth).
