I carry one in my vest or jacket pocket on long rides. I use the Skull Candy Smokin Buds ear buds and I can hear it fine at 70mph on the highway with no windshield. They sound great too.

I switched from the MP3 to an LG 8560 Chocolate 3. This thing has a 4gb card, GPS, FM transmitter, silicone buds and a mic that allows me to pull over and make or receive calls without taking the helmet off, half shell or full face.

I love it but don't use it in town.

The only difference is, with the right ear buds, you can hear an iPod at 70 mph...

An Ipod is a small data recording unit that allows the user to listen to music or the data that is stored through a variety of head sets (ear phones) which are sometimes called buds. Depending on the quality of the unit the sound produced by said unit can be so clear and loud the ear itself can be damaged, which generally results in a condition known as tinnitus that is basically ringing in the ears. An mp3 player is the same thing just built by other manufacturers.
