   This thing looks corny as hell, but it works. Fits XM MyFi perfectly if you cut a hole for the earphones. Don’t buy this to wear on your arm, the MyFi (and I assume any other radio that is similar in size) is just too big for this to work. I’m a pretty big guy, but when I straped this to my arm it just looked ridiculous. It also is uncomfortable and obtrusive on your arm because it bobs around due to it’s weight. On top of that, the blue accents are pretty gay looking. It almost looks like a fanny pack. I don’t know why they didn’t just make this all black.

   I use this thing primairly on my motorcycle and for that it works great. The XM signal is pretty much perfect using only the MyFi’s built-in antenna with the radio on my back under my jacket. This case is very comfortable. I wear it for hours and barely notice it’s there. The MyFi’s ear buds probably wouldn’t work too well on a bike, so I use koss “the plug” earphones. XM 82 “The System” on a motorcycle is a beautiful thing.

   I knew that this product would be reliable since I also have a Case Logic case for my digital camera. At first the case is awkward to use, as there is no access to your music player’s buttons, and the headphones are too easily disconnected through the top of the case. However, this case package is very versatile. In addition to keeping my Gigabeat safe, I can exercise with the armband. Otherwise, I use the included belt to hide the Gigabeat between two shirts, hence keeping my music with me while leaving my pockets and belt free.

   I looked at a few dozen alternatives to hold my iPod. Some were so bulky they’d interfere with actually using the device. Some were so thin and scaled-down that they didn’t seem to protect the device, which is the most important variable.

   Case Logic is a respected name, and this product illustrates why. The arm band is easy to attach, adjust, and put on. The belt pack looks a little dorky, but adds snap to secure the attachment, and includes two small mesh pockets for keys, change, and/or an ID. But the core case itself is the key part of the package.

   It’s just the right size, superbly designed, with just enough space, a cord outlet, and a versatile but compact set of options of attaching it: a double-layer loop, the outside of which services as a hand strap or to attach the case to a backpack strap, and a thin velcro underlayer that’s used to attach the case to either the arm band or (in combination with snaps) the belt pack. It’s also handsomely designed, simple, comfortable to hold.

   I bought this case for my Gemini XS200. It is a very nice fit, with a cable outlet on top for the headphone cable. It is made out of good solid, waterproof material. I haven’t actually used any of the add-on straps supplied with the case, because I haven’t needed to. It is so small that it easily fits in your pocket, and there is also a hand strap attached to it that is good to use when jogging. The add-on straps are an arm band and another one that goes around your waist, in which you can also place keys and other items. For under $20, you can’t beat this case.

   This is the best case I found for the GMINI400 or IPOD!!!
   
   I use it with my ARCHOS Gmini400 player and it is multiuse…
   
   1. I can run and hold it in my hand
   
   2. I can attach it to my belt, excellent, comfortable, NOT DORKY as other reviewer mentioned, very practical.
   
   3. I can attach it to my arm and go for a long run.
   
   NOTE: IPODS and GMINI400 are the same size.
   
   I really like the fact that there is headphone out on the case and it has two reflective lines on it for night time running.
