Give it a break, it does what it says on the tin and it does it well It is a little difficult to get your MP3 player in the case, granted but once in, it is very secure and the buttons are still very easy to operate.

More than you pay for - and not in a good way The basic idea of the armband is good. It was a bit fiddly to put on - but I expected to get better with practice.

It's actually very difficult to get in touch with Creative - not that I'm sure they can do anything. I'm assuming it's an allergic reaction - although I suspect the material just doesn't let the skin breathe. As would have thought people would want... more info
