As with all products Apple makes, this is a great piece of equipment. It makes a great accessory to anyone's day. Weighing in at less than 2 ounces, it is very compact and portable. Although, this also means it's easy to lose. I have been an owner of the iPod nano 1st, 3rd, and 4th generation, as well as an iPod video. I bought this iPod, the iPod Shuffle, for my mother as a birthday present so she would have something to listen to when she works out. I do prefer an iPod with a screen so you can see the songs your listening to and what songs you would like to select. Other than that I think it is a wonderful accessory, and as long as you don't put it through the wash you get your moneys worth.
Great MP3 player choice for younger children, as it is rugged, simple to operate, and holds enough songs (~240) to keep most younger children happy. The 2nd generation shuffles are colorful and of sufficient size to make it fairly easy to locate them in a messy room if left laying around, and the controls are well designed to allow small fingers to operate. It is also extremely helpful that ITunes provides the ability to limit the maximum volume on each unit, thus protecting young ears. Would also recommend use of on-ear or over-the-ear type headphones rather than ear buds... we've paired our kid's shuffles with color-matched Skull Candy's Low Rider on-ear headphones, a real bargain for $30 given they have a lifetime replacement warranty. Happy listening!
This device plays mp3s, looks purple, holds 1 GB of data, shuffles songs, and has the Apple logo on it. Basically, everything that you would expect from a purple Apple 1GB mp3 player called a Shuffle. My only complaint is that it is tied to iTunes without extra work on my part (I can put music on it in Linux, but it's hardly an advertised feature.) Since this device never claimed to not be tied to iTunes, I give it an excellent rating. We bought this one because with Apple, things seem to tend to work as advertised. Sure, you pay extra for the cute little apple on it, but we bought another manufacturer's mp3 player before, and things did not work as well.
I bought the iPod shuffle three weeks ago and was immediately impressed with the inexpensive ipod. It come with a 4gb memory, earphones, and charger. The ipod's size is perfect for carrying in a pocket and the battery has a pretty good lifespan of roughly 5 hours. My only complaint is that the color is a little bit faded compared to my friends ipod. Other mp3 players arent as easy to carry around but this ipod has a clip to clip about anywhere, I'd recommend the ipod if you're on a budget.
My mom is electronically challenged, I purchased this IPod Shuffle for her because of the ease of use. You can also turn it off and on with a button on the side. A IPod shuffle is tiny and clips on a shirt. A great product for those electronically challenged like my mom or as an introductory to an Apple IPod. An IPod Shuffle is a awesome product, beats having CD's and having to store them. Grest, awesome, excellent product for music lovers! Melissa
