    Advantages Advantages High-quality sound; long battery life; like the best radio station ever

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Expensive; headphones come loose, don't block out noise; slight impracticalities

    - CONFESSION - Two confessions actually, the second more embarrassing than the first: I'm more loyal to Apple products than most people. Being a Mac user in a Microsoft world has made me defensive, if not paranoid. Second, I love music, but hate predictability. This prompted bizarre behaviour in the past. Don't tell anyone, but I used to compile cassettes of random tracks from randomly-chosen CDs, taping them with my eyes closed so I didn't know what tracks I would hear, or in what order. Little did I know that within a few years, my favourite computer company would guess at my shameful secret ... more

    APPLE iPOD 1GB REVIEW INTRO I absolutely adore iPods, and I'm a HUGE fan of Apple and their products. I have several iPods myself (check out my other reviews on the iPod Classic and iPod Nano 4G), but don't always get round to reviewing them all. When the iPod Shuffle first arrived on the scene, it was tall and white, and I remember it cost around £40. I owned one of these and thoroughly enjoyed owning one, but loathed the fact it didn't have a screen to look at. So, when this version of the iPod Shuffle hit the shelves some years ago now, I was hesitant to make a purchase, because this iPod ... more

    Advantages Advantages Perfect for exercising with

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Maybe not enough storage for some

    As much as I admire people who are super motivated and are able to get themselves up and out exercising without any problems, I am definitely one of those who needs some motivation in the form of music while I am out running. It's not that I wouldn't go out a run without music, just that if I do then I become bored a lot easier and will end up out for a shorter time, covering less distance. When I decided that I needed to get myself back into some sort of exercise regime after a good couple of years without doing much exercise, I went out and bought myself an Apple iPod shuffle 1 GB. Having ... more

    4 Stars Shuffle Deals a Great Hand 17/05/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Perfect whilst exercising to music

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery indicator a little unreliable

    One of the best pieces of running kit I ever bought was not an expensive pair of running shoes, nor one of those fancy running vests that supposedly help keep you dry and cook when you sweat. Not, it was a tiny little 1GB iPod Shuffle. Strangely, at the time I had a cheap pair of running shoes and no special running vest, so at £44.00 it was also the most expensive piece of running equipment I had ever bought, but it soon proved to be well worth the cost, especially as it's proved the most durable piece of running kit I have - even more so than my legs, on occasion. You see, whilst I enjoy my ... more

    The Ipod Shuffle... When the second generation iPod Shuffle was released at the fairly good price of 49 pounds , i thought to myself , " Hmmmm... Should i go out and buy this very small mp3 player" , and i decided to wait for a while. As the months went by , the price of this impressive little gadget decreased to the very competitive price of £32.00. I was very impressed with this price as it dropped from almost £50!. I purchased my precious little iPod Shuffle from the store of Argos , where i had a few surprises with my silver iPod Shuffle when i opened it with anticipation. My first ... more
