How to you carry it?

For the past couple months I have just been using the neck strap, but it has annoyed me for the last time..

I wonder, how do you guys wear it?

xtrememac.com has released an armband for it, but I dont know what I think of it.

I use arm band with my MuVo. This is only a problem when working out my biceps since it cuts off the circulation.

I run the wires into my shirt and put the ipod in my jock strap.
It's out of the way and very easy to change songs (just think about something sexy)..

LOL, i cant even get the armband for the muvo round my upper arm.....i wear it around my wrist all the time, actually very useful when u on a train or bus and in not so friendly territory, people dont realise you are using one when you just slide your hand under your jacket sleeve to adjust the track or volume...lol
(and yes i know they will realise you are using something cuz of your headphones, what i mean is you dont need to take it out to do stuff with it....)

I bit the bullet and purchased the armband for $29 when I bought my iPod Shuffle. It works well for me. It is out of the way enough that I even wear it while using the Nautilus weight machines.

Strap it to your forearm. I find only women put arms on their arms... guys usually strap it to their forearms.

i have a 3G 15 GB iPod and I usually just let it rest on my lap when doing upper body work, but when running, I get the remote and clip that onto my shirt so I can change songs and tuck it the iPod in my shorts. Just make sure your headphones are long enough, but not too long.

I have an MPIO similar in size to the Shuffle (a little larger). I just put it in my shorts' elastic band. It stays there amazingly well.
