How do I carry my phone?

Hi guys! I have a burning question now that the days are warmer..... where do I keep my phone?? I use Nike+ and Laura's podcasts on my smart phone and through the winter I have worn a fleece with zip up pockets to keep it safe. Now though I don't know what to do? Any wisdom from all the experienced experts out there?????

I have zipped pockets in my running top and one in the back of my capris. I have an arm band for my ipod and a running belt for when all else fails that holds my phone and key!

Thats it about covered i think. ;)

I've ordered a flipband from the us (one place in uk sells too but with exchange rate cheaper to order direct) looks great - but waiting to receive so like you using too hot jacket right now - dont like armbands.

I have a cheap ebay armband for mine too but I don't find it that comfortable so I'm going to get a better one soon. I may even give this a go:
