Hey all,

I've recently acquired a BB 8100 Pearl through work, I'm hoping to use it as an MP3 player now that I have a smaller phone - I used to have an 8800 which was a bit too big. I'm looking for an arm strap (or similar), decent headphones (i.e. 3.5mm Seinheisser's or something, with a 2.5mm -> 3.5mm headphone adaptor) and some sort of durable case (Perhaps an Otterbox - It worked well with my 8800, however I'm not sure if there's an arm strap that is compatible with the Otterbox........

Any suggestions as to what to do? I have up to $100AU to spend, or thereabouts.

Cheers

Greg

I use a brand from tunebelt

There are probably some ipod bands you can use.

I use the nike armband, it fits in there perfectly. The product name is Nike Running Arm Wallet/Phone Case. Goodluck

As for earphones: try the Plantronics MX203S. They are really comfy, have a loop that secures them to your earlobe so they never come out and they have a button on the right earbud that pauses the music if you stop and talk to someone. OH! and they work as a handsfree system as well of course. Highly recommended. If you are going to use another type with a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adaptor make sure you get a Blackberry specific stereo one, a lot just don't work. enjoy your run!
