Hello all,
I just saw this product called the "H20 Man Waterproof MP3 player" (from www.kiefer.com) wanted to know if anyone has tried it:

I like that you can strap it onto your arm (comes with an arm band). It's about $100 cheaper than the SwiMP3 player, which I'm also interested to see how that is. Any reviews of either product?
Thanks!

Wow $89 too, that's the same price I paid for my mp3 player that has less memory and definitely does NOT work underwater! I'll have to see about getting one next paycheck..
I don't get people swimming with things in their ears. It is so distracting to me. Soemtimes I'll sing to myself. It is weird how the rythm of the stroke will bring a tune to my head.
I use the swimp3 and it is probably the best out there for in the water. You definitely cant use it on land though because it is bulky and the speakers are meant for in the water. It is a drawback, but then i just use my Rio for dryland training.
My advice would be to try out the swimp3 in the water if you can. It is a little weird because you are listening to music through your cheek rather than your ear, so it feels like the sound is coming from inside your head. But it sounds so much better than earphones...anyone comparing them will know that!
Also I heard they came out with a new generation of swimp3. So I bet you can get pretty good deals on the old version.
On that note...has anyone heard anything on the new swimp3? Anyone tried one to know if its better?
