Subject: Waterproof ipod or waterproof case to recommend?

Hi, does anyone use music while swim training, and if so what works for you? Need advice before I write my Christmas list to Santa. I could really benefit from some music while swimming laps in a boring 25m pool, but the reviews I've read on various options are mixed at best. Thought I would consult the real experts to see if there's something specific that works well for you.

I have a H20 audio that works great.  However, I haven't used it since I started swimming with a tempo trainer...beep....beep....beep....beep.  Not terribly interesting but effective.

Finis Swimp3. Works awesome. You can hear it perfectly. Never moves on flip turns or anything. Been using it for 3 years now. Wish I had the gb size one though. only have the older 128mb one.

I have swimp3 player for since 2008. It worked great, it stopped working and then they replaced it when it couldn't be fixed. New one worked maybe 3 months. They haven't been able to help me to get it working again.

I've had the H20 Audio Interval for over six months now and love it. Should have bought it a long time ago!

Another vote for the swimp3.  I've been really happy with mine and its really helpful for the long swims.  However, I agree that would be nice if it had a little more storage space.

I have the h2o audio.  Not a fan.  Hard to hear and the earbuds always fall out.  Have tried iterating the earbud sizes to no avail.

Another vote for the SwimP3. I've had one for a couple of years and I love it.

swiMP3 or the new xtreaMP3 which can be used out of the water as well. I've got a review of the xtreaMP3 in the works, but the short version is "I like it a lot." 

h20Audio products are also quite solid if you're looking for a case and not a player. The earphones sound surprisingly good.
