Awesome. Exactly what I was looking for. Exact fit for the Nexus One. It also came with a protective film for the screen which was also very nice!
The only complaint is that the material is very thin and feels like it would easily rip, however, I have used this at the gym, when i’m running, and when i’m mountain biking and so far no problems. Especially for the price, it is well worth it.

Pretty much perfect. It fits my phone, has all the necessary holes, holds it securely, etc etc.

Grantwood Technology’s Tuneband armband / silicone skin comes with the 3 stated components:
1. Armband – seems of reasonably high quality. Small velcro mat at the end, with a long patch of the fuzzy velcro running the length of the armband for maximum flexibility. While exercising, I was not concerned about security of the velcro, at least thus far in its life span.
2. Silicone skin – you need it to use the armband, as the armband functions by tunneling through 2 holes in the skin. Standard soft-shell skin. I actually prefer to use the slip-case that came with my N1, so I only use the silicone skin for exercising.
I bought the tuneband for these 2 components. Albeit a little pricey for my taste, it gets the job done well. There is however a 3rd component:
3. Screen protector – the screen protector adheres well, and I didn’t have a problem with any bubbles. Again, it seems to protect the screen. HOWEVER, there is a drawback. I feel like it has materially decreased the sensitivity of the touchscreen since application. It is not so severe as to be overly frustrating, but it seems noticeable, in particular around the edges of the screen.
I suspect I will at some point just get irritated enough that I attempt to remove it… I will let you all know if there are any difficulties in doing so by editing this review in the future.

This product isn’t bad, but it’s not great either. Pretty standard soft rubber skin, too thick in the back in my opinion, but I assume that is to make sure the armband doesn’t rip through it. The screen protector is of a standard quality, had a hard time getting the backing off though, they could have added a split to peel it off. The armband itself is the real disappointment though… far too small. I don’t even have particularly large biceps but the armband just about feels like it’s cutting of my circulation. I can wear it on my forearm fairly comfortably but then my headphone cable gets in the way.
