I heard you can buy enough stuff there to build a rebreather.:rollguy

I just took some bungee and made two individual loops and attached them together with one piece. By doing this I can actually slide it on my belt. The bungee has enough give that I can pull it out and see it if I want to change the song or mess with the volume. I also made a slit about an inch onder my ears on my hood so that I just slide the earphones in my hood it works great.

I used to leave mine in a DR pocket clipped to my O2 bottle. I have used it at Ginnie and never had an issue. I do leave my bottle inside the cave by the sign.

THe earpieces are a PITA. I unscrewed the silly strap clip things. I then just loop them under the mask vaguely near my ears and crank up the volume. That way everyone in a 20 ft radius gets to hear my TV show :) In the ocean I just slide them under my hood, no holes.

what does it sound like underwater?
is it clear?

Well you don't have that Bose quality, but it ain't bad.

Mine came in yesterday.........................I like the tube Leonard put up here. Looks like a xmas holiday project to me.

can vplanner be accessed from it while in this case?

nah. There's very limited access to stuff. In fact you MUST go in and preselect whether you want to watch video or listen to music, then switch off in that state using the H2O's switch. Otherwise when you power up it says "Slide finger to switch on" or something similar. Which is infuriating... since you can't touch it...

I put my iDive 300 inside this pouch. Fits the unit perfectly. It attaches very easily to the bands/bungee that hold the hoses on the side of a deco bottle. I leave the player with the deco bailout gas and then pick it up when I return. Like Andrew, I removed the silly mask strap brackets and just tuck the earphones inside my hood.
