I have that one, and it doesn't fit the DX well, at least not without stretching it, and that's without a case. In 4 months time, I have worn it out to the point I had to repair it (sewed it bk together and had to replace the velcro that the flap uses to close it). I work in a warehouse so it's not a big deal for me, but i would not recommend this to anyone else for a DX. D1, D@, D2G, sure. It fits them without stretching and with a case on.

While driving my jeep...I listen to my music through bluetooth. I rest my dx on my right leg. Its accesible and "safe" from going out the side where I have no doors on. I want to secure it to my leg with a band like this. Ever since Iron Eagle in the 80s I've wanted to do this. Lol

good news, Armpocket is launching a Droid X armband
Just wanted to share the latest news... The armband I used for my iPhone (before Droid X) was the best sport armband ever - used it for about 2 years - and still good, but my model does not fit my new phone. Called the guys to see if they could help, and they are coming out with a new model for the Droid X, it's the Xtreme i-30, available by mid-May. I'm on their distribution list so I'll post again when it's available. I love my current Armpocket, it's water-resistant, doesn't slip on the arm, has full screen access and just very comfortable (cushioned with memory foam I think). I wash it, and it's like new. And they offer multiple colors and strap sizes.

No offense intended, but is the cellphone armband the pocket protector of the 2010s?

It keeps my hands free to carry leashes and dog crap while I take them for a run. I don't wear it to be cool or attractive, I wear it for functionality.
Tune Belt AB84 works pretty well
Tune Belt just came out with a new armband that's a little bit bigger (AB84). I've got a hard case on my Droid X, and it fits well in this armband. I sweat a lot, and sweat tends to creep in around the edges of the armband, so I wrap my phone in a plastic sandwich baggie, and it still fits nicely in the AB84. I guess it's personal opinion, but for me the plastic cover of the armband doesn't affect visibility that much.

Awesome tip, thank you!
SpiBelt!!!
Hey guys i created an account to spread the word about the spibelt. i was looking for something to carry my brick of a phone (droid x) while i exercised and somehow stumbled across the spibelt. took it for a run today while using cardiotrainer and it was freakin awesome. there was no movement and volume buttons were still easily accessible.
anyone looking to go on runs/bike rides/hikes/jumproping/ anything! with a big smart phone should try the spibelt.
ps. if you sweat alot like me, they have a water resistant model which i got. after running today in hot weather i took my phone out and there was no moisture at all.
i kno this may sound like a fake infomercial line but seriously the spibelt is pretty awesome...just tryin to help!!!!
update* i just realized i didnt even tell you what the spibelt is. its an elastic belt that you wear with a pouch that stretches to hold items while your running. created by a marathon runner i believe. like a fannypack but more badass.

COOL! After spending the last 20 minutes or so reading online reviews, I just ordered the water resistant one about 5 minutes ago! My husband has been on a health/exercise kick lately and is doing a lot of working out and walking/jogging. He uses his phone for music and CardioTrainer/GPS.
Just last week he was caught in a sudden downpour and had to try to shield his DX while running back to the car. He doesn't like armbands, so he's been putting his phone in the pocket of his workout shorts, but then the one side is weighed down. I think this will work so well for him!
He has also been doing some smaller races (2k-4k) so I think this would be great for his phone, ID, and car key!
I can't wait to surprise him with it!
"Honey! I got you a fanny pack!"
LOL!!!!
(Thank you so much for the "infomercial"... When you know a good product, it's important to share!)

best armband for Droid X
Promised to get back to you when I received my Armpocket Xtreme i30.
The Droid X fits perfectly, and it doesn't slide on the arm (they have 2 strap sizes). There is plenty of room inside it, and it does not look bulky at all.
It's water/sweat resistant. I've used it a couple of times, and like their other models, they are so extremely comfortable, that you don't even feel it's on your arm.
They made a big deal about it at the Seattle Rock 'n Roll marathon expo last week. The price was $34.95, which is not bad - the last armband I bought from them (for my iPhone), has lasted a year so far. Found a free shipping coupon code, EARTH11
