Creative Zen Micro - Anyone have one?

[Blieb]

I'm thinking about getting the Zen Micro because I have the yahoo music service and it is one of the compatible devices.

Looks like after the firmware update, the thing kick a$$. Lots of great reviews (and great price) on newegg (link)

But I'm primarily going to use this puppy at the gym or while cycling. So one of my concerns is water resistance. It makes no mention of it. I just wonder how sensitive it is. I won't be swimming with the dang thing, but I do seat a good bit.

Also, there is no arm strap like for jogging ... right? Looks like they offer a belt clip but nothing else for say ... working out?

I looked on Creative's site ... but didn't see the answers ... (link)

When I ride I put my player in my back jersey pocket, but at the gym I like to wear it on my arm.

TIA!

CLIFFS:

Water resistent?
Arm Strap?

belt clip broken on my first try.... the unit get a bit warm but alright.
Its good, price wise for the 5G storage.
I did get a few "music break" when its put on my pants front pocket and walked really fast... may be its too fast and for too long..."
I sold me and get a flash type (creative MuVo 512MB at Dell around $60)...

I wouldn't use any sort of HD-based DAP at the gym, but that's just me.

Yeah that's what it's starting to look like :\ ...

I'm pretty low impact. Just regular lifing to road cycling. But I'd like the option to go anywhere ...

I was really interested in this one because of its good reviews and compatibility with the yahoo service.
