Reviews of the Dolphin Swimmer (1GB)

CNET Review
The Good: The Dolphin Swimmer MP3 players features a compact, waterproof design with raised, tactile buttons that are easy to operate in the water. The player can be attached to goggles for swimming laps, and the package includes waterproof earbuds as well. Gets really loud and offers good sound quality through normal earbuds. Mounts as removable storage on both Mac and Windows machines.
The Bad: The Dolphin Swimmer MP3 player uses a 2.5-millimeter headphone jack, meaning you need an optional adapter to use standard earbuds. Sound quality through the waterproof earbuds has a muffled quality, and they may not stay in place during vigorous activity in the water.
The Bottom Line: The Dolphin Swimmer MP3 player is an innovative waterproof MP3 player that should appeal to surfers and swimmers that want some tunes to follow them into the water.
