    curious how you ladies that put it in your bra don`t damage it? I Sweat!! and when I say sweat I mean there is a pool on the ground at the gym I need to clean up before I leave and my Bra is wet enough I can wring it out as is my shirt and most of my pants.

    I use armbands.. I have a very nice one by Belkin that I love.

    Just bought one for my phone and I'm not too crazy about it.. so we'll see if I send it back or not.

    I have a shuffle with the clip on the back...I clip it on the machine and shorten the cord with the clip too.

    I have a shuffle, it's much easier to use while running - I clip it to my shirt.

    I have lost 2 MP3 players because I used to carry it and would set it down on my car after my run and forget about it. Tried the arm band and hated it because it would sweat and rub and was annoying. Now I have an ipod shuffle and it's the best $50 I ever spent. Just clip it on my shorts and go.

    I have a iPod Shuffle that I use at the gym. Cheap and it clips to my shirt. On my walks at work I usually have my jeans on so my iPhone goes in pocket. On fancy pants day where jeans are not allowed I put it in my bra. Prolly looks odd when i go digging for it but as long as I don't break it I don't care what it looks like. :-)

    ** I have the iPod "socks" that I put it in to make sure that I don't get sweat all over it. Just a little stocking that fits on it and keeps it from getting icky.

    I sit an iPad next to the treadmill. That seems to work for me.

    Not sure what I'm going to do about the tunes when I start running on a road.

    I just came across this the other day. I haven't tried it but it looks like a nice cheap option:

    They have exercise sports bands for them that go on your arm.

    i can't use the armbands..they slide down my arm and won't keep still and accessing my iPhone is pretty much redundant whilst in it..i took my incase armband back to the apple store for a refund. The only thing I think that might work would be this..

    I put on my phone in an armband.

    don't put it in your bra! I almost broke my ipod from it getting to wet from me sweating. Get an armband or find workout clothes with pockets.

    I use my Iphone and it's armband when I am at the gym. When I am at home, the only thing I listen to is Shaun T.'s voice! ; )

    I have tried this once or twice but I sweat so much, I am afraid I will ruin my Iphone. LOL

    I always wrap mine around the handles or if I'm on the treadmill I put it in the drink holder :)

    I shove it in my bra on the side with the screen facing out. I get a lot of looks when I take it out and put it back in there a hundred times during my workout, but it's the only place that doesnt bother me!
