- hey, I am looking for a arm strap for my work out so I can run and have the music, etc. I tried looking on CB's store and online but I can only find the Krusell strap. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!09-15-09 11:27 PMLike 0
- you want to strap the tour to your arm while you workout...wow that is going to be one bulky load on your arm...why not just a pouch on your hip or something...besides I could be very wrong but I don't even think they make an arm strap for the tour...you would have to buy one for another device that is similar in size and hope that it somewhat fits is my best guess..09-16-09 06:18 AMLike 0

this comes with a arm fit? In this description it doesn't mention an arm strap anywhere...09-17-09 04:53 AMLike 0 - I have never liked arm bands; I use the OtterBox Defender and clip it to my hip. You can buy one here on CrackBerry.com. I use the Shure - SE210 head phones with the foam sleeves no matter how bad I sweat the headphones stay put. They sell them at Best Buy and the foam inserts come with them. I seriously can run 20 miles and my headphone wont come out of my ears. The only reason I bring up the headphones is because I see someone mentioned the S9 HD's which are good for listening to a book while working, that's what I use them for (unless it's sunny out) or maybe running for a few short miles without sunglasses.
I used the OtterBox on the hip when I had the Curve as well. It's not bad I've run well over 1000 miles with this setup so it's tried and tested. The sweat doesn't get to my phone and the one or two times I dropped it I just picked it up and kept running. I always have my phone to run AllSport for GPS and I can run Slacker for music, PodTrapper for a book or a Levin podcast, make a phone call. I've even watched Hannity with my SlingPlayer while running.
I wouldn't take my $400 or is it $500 BlackBerry running without an OtterBox!
Good luck,

Whatever works for you,

- AllSport works on the Tour you must get it from App World it is now a supported device and it works great, I use it to track my runs all the time! I've used AllSport for 100's of miles on the Tour alone and have never had a problem!

It's only a hand full of posts, but if you want to cut to the chase post 23 explains an issue I had. And I am running AllSport on a Tour with Sprint as my carrier.
Hope it helps,

Pain only lasts so long, but quitting a run lasts forever,

App World says AllSport doesn't support Verizon, but I think it works on the Tour? Give it a try.Last edited by SplinterCell; 09-19-09 at 07:33 PM.
