Been looking for the same thing for ages!! Seems like once upon a time (before I needed one) they were everywhere. I had high school teachers who wore them routinely. I've actually made lame attempts at creating them. Work so, so. But really, is this need so rare? And while we're on the subject, I'd kill for a very lightweight pouch, or chain dealie that I could connect my cell phone to. It's never on the same floor as I'm on! Must be an old people deal. But there are a lot of us, aren't there?
