Pros: The cord wrap is a nice addition.
Cons: To much room for 1st generation iPods, Armband isn't for smaller arms.
Other Thoughts: Although, the manufacturer (Griffin) claims this armband can be used for 1st generation iPod’s, it’s quite obvious that once the player is placed in the holder the abund...

Terrible. Get a cheap silicone case instead. A hearty recommendation NOT to get the Griffin Tempo Armband for iPod Video.
It couldn't be further from what I wanted, other than being an armband. The neoprene is too stetchy on the armband, the velcro pads are poorly spaced, while the opening is way too tight considering the loose fit over the iPod once you manage to get it in.

waiting for it to break so I can replace Very very tight. I am afraid my iPod will fly across the room when inserting it. There is no way to charge the iPod while its in the armband. To insert it I have to put the iPod in sideways and twist it after I squeezed it half way in. Due to this I have a bend mark in the clear plastic in front. It hasn't broken yet and it is very inexpensive and cheaply made. So if you want something to get you by until you find the perfect one go for it... but there are better ones out there.
