 a jogger's review :) October 31, 2008
I already have an iPod classic that's large enough to fit my 10,000 song collection onto it. I purchased the new iPod shuffle because I got really tired of holding onto my chunky Classic when trying to go running, and the sleak clip-on design of the Shuffle was just what I needed. I have no complaints. I essentially use it to play a specific playlist that I've developed in iTunes so I don't need a screen to tell me what I'm listening to. And I don't need it to be able to hold 1000 songs since I only go through about 10-20 in one workout period.
The volume goes as high or as low as I need it. There is a toggle switch to turn the "shuffle songs" feature on or off which is nice so that I don't get tired songs being played in the same order over and over again.
The overall usability is just as simple as I need it to be while I'm jogging. It's clipped onto my pants or my sleeve or my pocket and I can quickly press whatever button I need to take care of business without having to break my stride. And I've never had it come off which is what I was worried about the most.
The only thing that didn't work for me was the earbuds. They tend to hurt my ears, and when running they work their way out of my ears completely. So I just invested in a pair of earbuds that wrap around my ears.
Some folks have issues with the fact that you can only charge it through a computer. This has not been a problem for me seeing as I update the playlist often and the shuffle recharges while I'm doing that. But the battery rarely runs down regardless.
I highly recommend this product if you're just looking for a simple, inexpensive MP3 player to have on your body without it getting in your way. It's worth every dime.

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. This is the 2nd one i have purched and if needed, will buy another from Amazon.
Love the IPOD October 21, 2008
I bought the IPOD shuffle for my son and he loves it. There's been a learning curve as this is the first time he's owned one. So far so good.

Pros: Great sound, easy to use, and brick solid after more than one drop to the floor/ pavement.
Cons: Easy (for me) to misplace.
My solution: Have two of the shuffles. Doubles my chances of find one when I want it.
Rating: 5 stars. Can't blame Apple for my absentmindedness.
Purchased as a gift October 20, 2008

I purchased this as a gift for my 8 year old niece. She LOVES it. So, my only idea of how great or useful this item was, is based upon how happy she is in using it.
