Found Footage: iPod glove liner offers new hope to snowbound music lovers

I forgot to mention, I just tested it with a 3G iPhone and it worked after a minute or two of initializing the controls.

d: Guilty as charged!
John: The red, white, and black gloves are my roommate's motorcycle gloves ;)
Caliban10, Brunoximus: I feel the same way. I love the sound of the snow under my board! I always see people w/ headphones though, and I figured something like this would help. The main difference here is that this should be way cheaper. Also, if you go through glove every two seasons, you'd be hesitant to pay $200 for a pair of iPod outer gloves.
Patrick, required: Those are definitely good for walking around town. However, if you're fashion-conscious (read matching snowboarding gloves, casual gloves like my friend had) then those might not be a good solution. Also, this sort of system allows you to keep the iPod tucked safely away and out of the rain/snow.

Let me try this post again, the last one never got me a confirmation on my account to approve.

Winter wear maker Marmot came up with a great pair of gloves, the iGlove Liner and iGlove Multi. They were made for the iPod and they also work great for the iPhone as well. They cost $30 and $35 respectively.

I used the liner all Winter and it was great as a driving glove that kept your hands warm and still enabled the use of my iPhone and anything else because not a bulky glove. The Multi I may get this Winter. to handle for days where it's really cold, last year the Liner didn't warm enough in to the worst cold days in Chicago.

Personally i like the quiet surrounding of the frenche alpes (off-piste). Just me, my board, my breathing and the occassional 'whoo-hoo-yeah' of friends. So, No need for a ipod there.
Anyway there are some snowboard jackets and caps with ipod controls buildt right into them (Burton & RED). No need for hacking gloves.. which get wet anyway.

Yes listening to music with earphones while you ski or snowboard is a really good idea.... it'll sound great as you get run over by a snow blower that you didn't hear...

I bet this would be totally great for Motorcycle riders as well.

watch the vid- you'll notice someone has been having a lot of fun with iPod wizard.
