View Full Version : Remotes? (Listening to music while on motorcycle)

I have an ~80 mile daily commute - primarily highway, and music helps, a lot.

I used to have a nano which I wore on an armband over my jacket. However, the iphone's touch screen doesn't work well with my gloves - not to mention it's awkward to hang off of my arm.

I purchased a monster remote for the nano which would've worked great EXCEPT every now and then when I would hit the volume up button and the volume would go all the way to max level - which is pretty irritating when you're wearing a helmet and can't get the music back down again.

So, is there a reliable remote for the iphone? Any suggestions? I don't want to be 'attached' to the bike in any way, so mounting the iphone to my bars is not feasible. I want to be able to keep my iphone in my pocket, but even an in-line volume control might work.
