 Great piece of kit October 14, 2008

My tiny round blue Sony Mp3 gave up the ghost after three years service so I thought I'd give the Shuffle a go as all I wanted was a small player to simply play music. Nothing else. So far, I'm very pleased with it. The sound quality is nice and clear, the Shuffle tiny and light and a lovely blue shade. Most of all, I love the clip, which makes it so convenient and portable.
My only problem is converting Sony's ATRAC files to iTunes friendly mp.3 but I have ripped a CD straight to iTunes and that worked very well. iTunes is a lot easier to use than SonicStage and I know I am not alone in having this problem of being stuck with Sony's format for music files. Even so, I am glad I have bought an iPod.

I have always been against apple and the ipod, and gone with creative zen micro and stone. However, i decided to buy one of these purely because of the clip! I use it for the gym so this feature really really helps!
The pictures here do not do it justice at all, it is so tiny!! The colour is really nice as well, was a bit unsure about that when buying it but i am really pleased.
The only thing i will say is that with this ipod, you can only sync to one set of itunes. For instance, any music i have on my work pc cannot be added as i have already added music from my home pc. This is a pain as i then have to use a pen drive to copy the tracks i want, take them home, then sync them.
I'm so pleased with it though, i've just brought my mum one as well - she didn't realise how tiny it actually was and needed one as soon as she saw mine!

When I go for a run I like to listen to music, and for this the iPod shuffle is absolutely perfect! Despite its small size it is solid and well built with no flimsy plasticy parts which look and feel like they're going to snap off. And the small, lightweight size means that it doesn't get in the way.
The belt clip feels firm and solid - as you'd expect as it made of steel like the main unit - and grips well without marking your belt or clothes. The buttons are well placed and very easy to operate without looking, as is often necessary if using it while jogging or working out.
If you were to use this as your main music player on the go then the fact that the Shuffle doesn't have a display would probably be a bit of a problem. But, if like me, you're only going to use it in the gym or when jogging this shouldn't be a problem ... after all who has time to read the display when running anyway.
As with all iPods the ear phones included are adequate but not exactly brilliant. Half a star lost as a result.
Ordinarily I would say that 1GB or 2GB is too small for a portable music player, but on this occasion I'm quite happy to sacrifice storage space for portability and ease of use as this more than makes up for the fact that it will "only" hold about 200 songs. Of course managing the songs stored on the iPod Shuffle is a breeze with iTunes.
Equally important, the battery life is very good when you take into account the small size of the gadget.

After months of using cheap crappy MP3 players I bought this and thought "sod it", i spent a little extra (it was 50 back when i bought it) and got me an Ipod shuffle.
There is nothing to say other than it works, it's tough, it's pretty (mine is a beautiful blue) and it works beautifully. I find it very compact and sturdy and it charges well too - the battery also lasts me a long time.
A star off however for Apples not so eco friendly manufacturing!!

Nothing new to be seen with this new-labelled MP3 player from Apple. Now in its second hyear of release, the Shuffle is starting to pale in comparison to competitors such as the Zen Stone Plus, which offers greater capacity and features at a lower cost. However, this MP3 player itself is mostly faultless, and though it may not be the best deal out there cannot actually be faulted for quality.
