So, I started using my phone as my mp3 player, because even on the very basic hands free sets it mutes the music and rings in my ear. But, if I'm doing dishes or something and a song comes on that I want to skip, I have to dry my hands, pull the phone out of the pouch, unlock it,, skip the song, relock the phone screen and put it back in the pouch. I want to be able to just dry one hand and push a button. Thanks for the glowing review - if it turns out Chris doesn't already have something that does this, I'll probaby be getting one soon! This is also why I don't want noise cancelling headphones, I need to be able to hear other things besides the music, like someone at the door.

I completely understand! The two things that made me get it was cleaning house and working out. I'm to the point now that I never vacuum until I put the earbuds in. I can no longer stand the noise of the beast. It's a Kirby and I have mostly tile floors, so the loudness is unreal, yet... they feel grimy if I just sweep. I would definitely recommend any of the Jabra's since they're rain proof as well. The newest one is the Clipper, but I bet you can get the older dog tag style on ebay for a song.
