1. A holder for removably retaining a device substantially adjacent to the holder, with the device having a clip, the holder comprising:a longitudinally extending portion of material for wrapping around the top and bottom of the device along a longitudinal length of the device, the longitudinally extending portion having a longitudinal axis and including: a pair of apertures in the portion of material with the pair of apertures aligned substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the longitudinally extending portion and through which a pair of portions of the clip of the device aligned substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the longitudinally extending portion are removably disposed; and a strip of material disposed between the pair of longitudinally aligned apertures for distributing a force associated with the clip of the device, thereby reducing wear on the longitudinally extending material. 2. The holder of claim 1, further comprising:an longitudinally extending end; and a pouch for retaining the device therein; wherein the longitudinally extending end wraps around the device to be substantially adjacent to a surface of the pouch, thereby retaining the device within the pouch at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder. 3. The holder of claim 1, wherein the portion of material is composed of fabric.4. The holder of claim 1, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material wraps around a portion of the device, with the longitudinally extending portion of material including:a first hook-and-loop fastening element for engaging a second hook-and-loop fastening element mounted on the device, thereby retaining the device within the wrapped configuration of the portion of material at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder. 5. The holder of claim 1, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material wraps around the device, thereby retaining the device within the wrapped configuration of the portion of material at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder.6. The holder of claim 5, further comprising:a pair of ends of the longitudinally extending portion of material; and a fastener on at least one of the pair of ends for securing the pair of ends together to retain the longitudinally extending portion of material in the wrapped configuration about the device. 7. The holder of claim 6, wherein the fastener includes a hook-and-loop fastening element disposed on at least one of the pair of ends.8. The holder of claim 6, wherein the fastener includes a buckle disposed on at least one of the pair of ends.9. The holder of claim 1, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material further includes:a pair of ends having a first width; and an intermediate portion having: the pair of apertures; a second width greater than the first width. 10. The holder of claim 9, wherein the intermediate portion further includes:accessory apertures for retaining an accessory. 11. The holder of claim 10, wherein the accessory is a keychain.12. The holder of claim 10, wherein the accessory is a keyring for retaining keys.13. A holder for removably retaining a device substantially adjacent to the holder, with the device having a clip, the holder comprising:a longitudinally extending portion of material for wrapping around the top and bottom of the device along a longitudinal length of the device, the longitudinally extending portion having a longitudinal axis and including: at least one aperture in the longitudinally extending portion of material through which the clip of the device is removably disposed with the clip of the device aligned substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the longitudinally extending portion. 14. The holder of claim 13, further comprising:an longitudinally extending end; and a pouch for retaining the device therein; wherein the longitudinally extending end wraps around the device to be substantially adjacent to a surface of the pouch, thereby retaining the device within the pouch at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder. 15. The holder of claim 13, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material further includes:a pair of ends having a first width; and an intermediate portion having: the at least one aperture; a second width greater than the first width. 16. The holder of claim 13, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material wraps around a portion of the device, with the longitudinally extending portion of material including:a first hook-and-loop fastening element for engaging a second hook-and-loop fastening element mounted on the device, thereby retaining the device within the wrapped configuration of the portion of material at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder. 17. The holder of claim 13, wherein the longitudinally extending portion of material wraps around the device, thereby retaining the device within the wrapped configuration of the portion of material at any angular orientation and preventing the device from being removed from the holder.18. The holder of claim 17, further comprising:a pair of ends of the longitudinally extending portion of material; and a fastener on at least one of the pair of ends for securing the pair of ends together to retain the longitudinally extending portion of material in the wrapped configuration about the device. 19. The holder of claim 18, wherein the fastener includes a hook-and-loop fastening element disposed on at least one of the pair of ends.20.
