Advantages: small, lightweight, 1GB, good battery life, cool looking! Disadvantages: only chargeable via PC, no display screen
Can't decide? Then don't! Let the shuffle decide for you. As the name suggests the new ipod shuffle jumbles your songs playing order so you never know whats coming next. You can feel fruity with an 80s pop hit one song and down and depressed with a power ballad the next. If the thought of this drives you crazy, the simple flick of a switch allows you to play your songs in the order they are arranged on your itunes software.
Now what makes this so ... ...(which allows you to hold approximately 250 songs), but the crucial difference is in the design. Its tiny!
The second generation shuffle has a small, sleek design with a handy clip to rear which allows you to attach it to your clothing hassle free. I feel this is very good for runners/power walkers as it means they do not have to carry it. The recent advertising campaign on tv suggests "putting some music on" and literally this is very easy to do ...

Advantages: Tiny, lightweight, does it's job Disadvantages: Can't detatch clip at back
I received this item free from a reward website last month, soon after this model was released. I was actually supposed to recieve the 1st generation ipod shuffle, and was extremely happy to find that they had in fact sent this newer model of the ipod shuffle, a third of the size and weight of the old model, yet it holds the same number of songs (1GB= 240 songs approx). This particular shuffle, has a small unnatachable clip on the back so it can ... ...only downfall, I would say, is that the clip makes the ipod shuffle twice as thick, so it would be favourable if you could remove the clip and perhaps wear the ipod shuffle around your neck, as you can with the old model. Unfortunately this isn't the case, so if you have nothing to slip the ipod to, the clip just adds extra bulk to the shape, and renders useless.
1.62 inches long and about half an ounce, this holds up to 240 songs, which is more ...

...which is also very confusing. Apple provide a card which explains what the little light is trying to communicate (we hope)
The ear pieces aren't very comfortable you would think Apple could do better and make them a better quality.
Good Points
Easy to use controls forwards, back, pause, play , volume control and bobs your uncle pretty straight forward no problems. The sound quality is excellent and the bass impressive. The itunes software isn't ... ...site. Integration is flawless too.
The Shuffle is small lightweight and very smart looking and has a clip on the back. This can be attached to your clothing and is great for people who like exercise. Ok for walking to the pub. The clip is quite secure fastens to your pockets sleeves etc.
The iPod shuffle is only available in a 1GB model. This should hold about 250 songs, which I think is quite adequate . It costs around £55, you can get cheaper ...

I really like my ipod shuffle. I know tht u cant choose songs but if you organise it in alphabetical order its not really a problem. 1gb is also relaly good considering the size of the thing. I was also impressed with the alluminium case, itl probly last me quite a long time if i dont lose it. It stil came with standard headphones, but ive always really liked these, and think its pointless wasting anymore money on a different pair. The supplied dock ...

Advantages: Very strong and portable. Extremely good value for money. Disadvantages: Some may prefer a larger capacity. Other than that, no disadvantages at all.
The iPod shuffle is, without ANY shadow of doubt, the best MP3 player I have ever owned. It is incredibly strong for something of it's size and weight. The day I bought mine I accidentally sent it flying across my kitchen, to find it had no damage whatsoever. I recently fell off of my skateboard with the iPod clipped to my belt-loop, landed directly on it, and the little thing still works perfectly, despite having had 89kg fall and slide on it. The ... ...The capacity, while nothing amazing, is perfect for those wishing to listen to a few tunes whilst on the go. It holds around 200 songs, depending on file size, which for most people is just fine. With the miniature size of it, and the clip on the back, the Shuffle is very portable, and can be clipped to pretty much anything, like belt-loops, tracksuit trousers, shirts, jackets, backpacks etc. The clip is very strong, so the iPod won't just fling ...
