Description: We have not invented the iPod, but we’ve invented an accessory for it that all iPod owners need because they share a common problem, how to carry their iPod during activities. The Player Support replaces the only real option out there - the arm and wrist bands that iPod users dislike with great veracity because of discomfort and inconvenience. The Player Support is a lightweight elastic harness that holds an iPod (or any media player) pouch in the chest area where it can be viewed and navigated conveniently, and it has loops that guide the headphone cord around to the back and up the center of the neck keeping it snugly tucked away. A chest strap only version is also available for runners. With our product, people can take their music player along for almost any activity without worrying about being distracted by it. We believe that, once empowered with our product, our customers will discover many new activities they can do with the enjoyment of their player.
