I've been trying to find an armband for my droidx for working out but i can't find one anywhere so i figured id just use an evo armband but i couldn't find any for that. Anyone know where i could find something? Or is there just no love for big phone users that workout?

I'm grabbing one of these:

because the price is right, once it ships in i'll report and how well it works
I picked up this last weekend. Got it in the other day. I haven't gotten to "use" it yet but i have put it on and everything. Has snug fit and can still use the screen easily. it does cover the 4 buttons on the bottom though. overall good for the price. beats the $40 dollars i spent on one for my iphone a year ago

See i saw a lot of those and didn't go for it because it shows the orginal droid and I figured the size would be way to far off to fit and x in there. Is it the same one in the picture for the droid?
Just got it yesterday, little disappointed that the band around the arm isn't very stretchable, putting it on something like my bicep might be uncomfortable or fall off. but I guess if I don't do arm work outs it might be ok, in anycase I'm going for my workout today and i'll report back.
I know tons of people have asked about these. I just ordered one from Samsung over the phone for like 11 bucks. I was just messing around on Ebay and found this. He says he has 8 available but who knows how long they will last.

Lol. I HAVE NOT thought about this. Bit I am now. Might be cool to try a brushed metal look or something like I had on my iPod. Or different colors. Like red.

Just thought I'd share with you guys. I saw a post by John.Smith so I actually ordered one and it looks even better in person. This this fits so well on my Captivate. It seems as though it's precision cut by a CNC Machine. It's almost an exact fit. I haven't seen any better for our phone yet. The texture actually gives it a little more grip so it won't so easily slip out of my hand. And I've bought a ton of skins. The material is extremely high quality. It's really easy to put on! It only took me about 5 minutes and now I have an awesome looking phone!!! I LOVE THIS SKIN!!! You guys should check him out on ebay. It's well worth the money!!!

everything but the back casing that covers the battery would. but if you're anything like me. you can always make it look cool regardless.
Looks pretty nice .... was looking for something like this ...... thanks

Well... if you're thinking about upgrading to one of the extended batteries then one way to make it so that the battery cover looks alright with this decal would be to make one cut and have it be 2 pieces. with the pattern thats on it if you were to just cut along one of the lines and have the gap somewhere toward the bottom or the top it would still look pretty decent. I've actually been thinking about getting an extended battery myself. I might just order one tonight and then do this myself. I will post this pics when i do.
oh. and another way around buyin the extended battery would just be to buy another stock OEM battery. you can pick one up for about $12-13 now. that's what i have. and depending on the rom you're running you can get pretty awesome battery life. I'm running firefly and phoenix roms and i get between 20-35 hours out of a single charge and i never even have to use my spare battery.
Yes same here, I also ordered an extended battery. I just can't be bothered 2 carry an extra battery...too lazy...

ya totally. i think i've only carried my spare once because i went camping. well. if you like speed, stability, and awesome battery life check out the phoenix and firefly roms. you wont need the extended or spare batts.

actually it covers literally most of the phone. its way better fitting than any of the other skins out there so far. I've bought a ton of these and none of them are this high of quality. you would seriously need to feel this thing to believe it. the guy who's making them is giving $5.00 off if you take some pics of them and post them somewhere on the net. so really it doesn't cost much at all.

Does it adds any bulk to the phone? How thick is the skin anyway?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
.013 inches thick.... give or take thickness of a pube hair...
its about as "thick" as "thin" construction paper...
Just ordered price drop to 9.99 + 5.00 shipping can't wait i won't have to use a case anymore

Nope. it doesn't add any bulk. it feels really nice with the texture. i love this thing.
Nice, need to inquire if they ship internationally though. Thanks!

still waiting on mine, shipping is slow
Hey guys,
I know a lot of you are looking for this.
I have found a site which has these in stock and is selling. I bought two.
http://www.mrcellphoneunlocker.com/V2/products.php?product=TB_EX
Pretty cheap if you ask me.
They all look pretty poorly cut... maybe if they done better it would be worth it, but looking at all the jagged cuts on those skins... it would be cheaper to just buy one of ebay for less and poorly cut the thing myself.
Im lazy

True. But I rather save $10 bucks. and get 2 if needed.
Money should always trumps lazyness. $3 vs $13...

haha ew they are poorly cut
Those look terrible. I cut mine and it doesn't look that bad.
Would like 2 in white, I had to make my own.... & it' s wearing out after only 1- months heavy use... Also lookin' 4 a 2nd extended battery.... 2 keep ready charged...

LMAO this is some sort of joke right? What moron would pay $13 for that?
I had done my own cut back 15 days ago, photos are outdated but you get the idea. In addition, I had ran a lighter around the freshly cut edges to smooth out the lines. It's better looking in person, that's for sure.

Shrug. I just buy from by buddy. I have 2. He only sells black though.
So far, Ive had mine from his pre-release ones. and its holding up quite well.
They can be seen on: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320689127257&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT
Those are the ruff cut pics. I dont think hes had time to update pics because hes had some family and whatnot. But, for the price. $13 vs 25.
I'm also selling them for $10 shipped.

I'm actually waiting for this:
http://www.seidioonline.com/category-s/5448.htm
Seidio is going to have their active case for the ThunderBolt which will cover the battery more than likely because they just released pictures of their SURFACE case and it covers the battery. Check it out and let me know what you think.
Thursday i bought a 3800mAh extended battery from ebay with sprint in the title and also on the battery itself from the pictures i saw. I looked in the description and it also said verizon in it and was a tad confused as to will it fit. For $15 i figured i might as well try it out and see but it gets here monday. I just wanted to know if anyone knows if it will fit on my sprint galaxy nexus properly? or maybe i will have to make some alterations as long as it works? link for it is: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370639867086
Note: Battery also says i515(Verizon)/L700(Sprint)
Yea that should fit the phone fine. I have the seido 3800 battery and it Has a similar back as described in the pic.
The bad news for this battery is its a cheap Chinese made one and typically they are made of cheap components and won't give u what Ur expecting in battery life....maybe I'm wrong..let Me know the life of it.
The back of the case is slick and I found I needed the 3800 hardshell case to avoid it from falling out of my hand. You may need it as well.
The NFC function may not work with that battery...but Google wallet isn't something I find myself using much anyhow so no big deal.
If the battery sucks...I recommend the seido 3800 as ive been using it for a year and get a full days use fairly easy.

Well the battery came today and had 53 percent left on it. Currently im doing the initial first full drain and so far im already very very impressed! I can already see an increase in battery life. The door fits perfectly on both of the batteries(I ordered two of em) with no problems what so ever. Great so far
Okay im slightly confused, should i drain the battery first or charge it fully overnight?
