Sweating, Click-Wheel, and iPod

I exercise a lot with my iPod. One problem I have is when I get really sweaty my Click-Wheel starts acting funny. Like it would jump when scrolling and simply pushing the forward button... Any clue if this is an iPod defect?

no, moisture affects the sensitivity of the ipod, like you are experiencing. All I can offer as support is sweat less! rofl, jk. Seriously though, it's nothing to worry about.

It should, but there is the worry that sweat will leak into the ipod's nooks and crannies, in which case it could cause permanent damage. If it doesn't work right, take it back.

Just put a towel under the armband. then wipe your fingers on it before you use it.
