Do you have a 1st or 2nd generation Shuffle?

A couple of options for the 1st gen on the Apple site: http://store.apple.com/...F&nclm=iPodCases

I had the sport case and it worked great.

2nd gen: http://www.dlo.com/...art=1167737501449573

I bought an arm band for mine on ebay - it is large enough that it holds it - would even accomodate the sport case, too. The other thing I can think of is to put it in a zip lock bag in your pocket.

OtterBox is waterproof and works great!

I don't have a shuffle, but I put my Treo in a ziplock bag in my rear jersey pocket while riding. There are generics that are 'snack sized' that might fit into a shuffle case. Just put a small hole for the wire.

The sport case works great. I have ridden in the rain with the thing many times. No problems...

As others have said, I've also had good luck with the sport case from apple. I've done the ziploc bag thing too but it didn't work well.......I totally fried two Shuffles doing this.

I second the otterbox - I use mine when water running and this and the water proof headsets are great.

I've been using the Amphipod (I actually have two of them), which clips to my shorts, jersey pocket, etc., and also allows me to carry an ID, a key, etc. along with the Shuffle. Last night is a perfect example of how well it has worked out: started in a light sprinkle, and ran more than 40 minutes in what varied between constant drizzle and downpour. My Shuffle in the Amphipod was dry as could be. I am totally sold on the amphipod and recommend it to you wholeheartedly.

Doesn't look like any of these companies have cases for the 2nd gen shuffle. I'm sure those are on their way.

These are great products. Pricey, but work very well.

Yeah, it is amazing how waterproof these cases are. Mine only cost $10 from Iriver; came with headphones and everything.

Try an iSkin.

I use a condom on my mp3 player. Trojan unlubricated. Cheap, thin enough so you can see through it and work the controls. Twist the end around the headphone cord and secure with a twistie-tie. Works great. Trim the ring off the condom and it is not so obvious.

I'm on my 3rd as well. Problem only happened during summer months when wearing the armband. Sweat destoryed it! I started putting it in a zip lock bag, inserted in the armband, with a rubber band to close it tight. Worked well.

The condom idea sounds good, but, I would pay hell trying to explain that to my wife (leaving the house dressed in tights and lubed up with a condom in my pocket would be hard to explain, especially when I come home looking like I've been rode hard and put away wet) ;)

Yeah, but the condom method isn't 100% effective. Ask my 4 year old son.

You could try the rhythm method -- only take it out when weather cycles look favorable.

Both methods are prone to failure. Try the ring? the patch? I know! It will probably fit in the box that birth control pills come in.

Best and cheapest solution:

Contacted both companies. They are in the testing phase. Products should be out soon.

Funny... I had already done the work because I gave a shuffle to my loved one for Christmas... This is is January ! Back in training, no time for errands anymore !

Put me down as vote 3 for the Apple sport case.
