I'm dying to use an ipod while I swim.
Has anyone tried any of these devices?
The H20 is a waterproof case with earphones.....just bought it but hope that wasn't a mistake..(got online..haven't received to try out yet!)
LMK!!!!! THANKS!!!
After hearing glowing reviews I purchased a swimman ( even tho I have a swimp3 player and am happy with it ). It arrived a day after I ordered it, but I could not get it to communicate with my computer,..I sent it back ( they were very helpful and bent over backwards to please me ) and am looking forward to receiving another ) . I never got a chance to test the earbuds,..hopefully they will work. What kind of "neosporin" did use use and ....how?
Thanks in avance

Just good old Neosporin antibiotic creme (available over the counter in a small tube). The Neosporin helps prevent swimmer's ear and really helps them stay in your ears. The other day I forgot to put the Neo on the earbuds though and they didn't stay in very well at all....this is a must!
LMK if I can help out!! Good luck! ENJOY!!!
PS- Why did you get this if you were happy with your Swimp3? Just curious...I never tried the Swimp3.Maybe it's better?????

Gotcha! Makes sense! You just need some regular earphones if you want to use it out of the water, if you didn't already know!
And get the Neosporin and use it..EVERY time. I forgot to bring it once and the buds kept falling out!Err.......
Oh and make sure you pull out the earphones to turn it off (OUT of the water...) and don't use the off button to turn it off..and don't mess with any of the buttons on the bottom. They are set to help waterproof it.
LMK if you have more questions!
GOOD LUCK!
Last night I used the swimman,..in the Ocean. I think I used too much neosporen,..the sound was muted considerable...I took it off twice, while swimming and tried clearing the earbub,..but to no avail. Perhaps I got water in the ear bud attachment tube? Tonite I`ll try it in a swimming pool under simplier conditions and no neosporen.
I swam in the LA Fitness pool this eveining with the swimman. Once again I had a problem with the sound muting. I used no neosporen and had no problem with the earbud becoming dislodged....except when I pushed off the wall ( and I do not push hard, my knees are shot) the music volumn decreased considerably and water got in my ear and the music out of the right earbud was muffled,..when I stopped and sucked the earbud,..the music returned and was very clear,...not too much later the same problem. I`ll have to use it again and see what happens.

Ugh! Hum. I had some problems like this before using the Neosporin.
However, I'm thinking some neosporin got IN THE hole of the earbud.
Take it and run it under cool water. Take the earbuds off as well and put them back on the unit.
The other day one of the earphones on one side stopped working completely but I just took the earbud off and washed it and put it back on better and it's fine now.
Sorry for your troubles. Keep messing with it and clean it good. Make sure again NOT to get the Neosporin IN the earbud holes. I bet that is what happened!
Keep us posted!:wiggle:
PS- When you are done with the unit for the day hang the earphones up to dry so the water drains out of the headphones (upside down U)
I used H20 Audio for about a year and loved it and then one day when I was about 500 yards into my workout it leaked and ruined my iPod, so be careful with it.
Yeah. I tried this a was SO AFRAID of this happening. Plus the earphones were TERRIBLE and didn't stay in. Also the case is just way to big to swim laps with...
I hated it!
Get the SWIMMAN! Worth the $$$
Hey all... my hubby got me a Swimman for my birthday... tried it out this past Saturday. I was amazed at how clear the sound was. I did not have any problems with the earphones. All in all... I am in love with this thing! I give it two thumbs up.
