Just make sure you use Google Checkout and after shipping (as long as you dont owe tax) it will be around $10

Thanks for the post, was looking at getting this but I can't get that same price for some reason. What am I doing wrong using google check out. Still coming out to 20.67

you need to use a google account hat hasnt used the $10 off checkout before...basically send yourself an invite from existing gmail account (options on left for 50 invites) and create a new gmail account then use that to checkout.

Problem is that the account I used was a new google checkout account. So I dont know what the deal is. I called to ask but was kept on hold for 35 minutes and i hung up and sent then an email.

Thanks for your help, any other ideas would be great.

I was considering ordering this armband, but the last time I bought one (another brand) for my iPod, I found it didn't fit my arm. :frown:



I hate to buy this one for my iPhone and find it doesn't fit...

I just went ahead and ordered it anyway, it was only $9.99... If anyone has similar concerns, PM me and I'll let you know how it worked out.

i had one similar to this for my iPod, but the plastic on the front would suction to the screen on my ipod and it was a royal PAIN IN THE ASS to take in and out. Let me know if you can easily slide your iphone in and out of this case or if you have to fight with it for minutes at a time. thx

Advice for people who workout. I stuck this on at the apple store it would not fit my arm. I am 5'6 230lbs. I workout everyday. I have around a 16 inch arm so you can go from there. When you do measurements. The band will fit but will be tight as Hel and as you workout it will get tighter. I had one for the Nano. I am looking for a solution still the only other option I see is to get this one and wear it on your forearm, and run the headphone wires into your sleeve and out the neck of your shirt. This is the route I had to take with my nano.

Wow, thanks for the info. I just put a tape around my arm and found it's 18.25" so I'll assume there's no way in hell this would fit based on your info. I cancelled my order. :embarrassed:
