Anyone have any good recommendations for waterproof MP3 players? From what I can gather on the internet the headphone component is the biggest problem.
So far I hear good things about SwimMan products but I cant find any good reviews from serious swimmers.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I am not sure how many hours these items last for before recharging? I heard 2 hours, I sure need one for more than that.
What they should do for swimmers like you who need more than one or two hours charge, is a rechargeable battery that recharges via movement. I (for one) am old enough to remember when my father gave me one of the first self-winding (automatic) wrist-watches way back in the early 50's. Of course the battery manufacturers would contract a hit (is this still the correct terminology in the 21st Century?) on anyone who would try patenting such a device for waterproof MP3 Players..............
They (not battery manufacturers) are getting energy out of sea (waves) motion, after all.
