Product description

Apple 1GB iPod Shuffle - Green

Features

Size it up: The world has never seen a digital music player this small. Weighing in at about half an once and 1.6” long, the new iPod shuffle clips right on your clothes for true portability. The anodized aluminum enclosure protects your iPod and goes with about everything you wear.

Play your favorites: This 1GB flash drive holds up to 240 songs in 128Kbps AAC format. It also plays MP3s, WAV files, AIFF files and audiobooks.

Easy-to-use controls: With the one-click wheel, you can listen to your tunes in the order you loaded them, or mix things up with shuffle mode. Click the center button to play and pause. Click the outer buttons to move back, skip forward, and adjust volume.

Shuffle switch: Flip the shuffle switch to mix up iPod shuffle’s contents. Flip it again to play your handpicked playlists and albums in the order you synced them from iTunes.

Autofill from iTunes for Mac or Windows: It's so easy to add music to your iPod shuffle you could swap out new tunes every day. Just plug it into a USB port then drag and drop individual songs. You can Autofill from any of your iTunes playlists, listen to the songs in the order you set, or switch to shuffle mode to mix things up. If you would rather mix up something completely fresh, skip the playlist and Autofill from your entire music library.

Carry files and music: Taking your data from one computer to another is simple. Just open iTunes and set the amount of storage space you want to leave free for files and how much to Autofill with music. The integrated USB connection lets you use your iPod shuffle just like a portable USB drive.

Wear it anywhere: Thanks to a built-in clip, iPod shuffle goes with anything. Clip it to your sleeve, lapel, coin pocket. No matter where you wear it, iPod shuffle speaks volumes about your style.

Integrated USB battery: The included iPod dock allows you use the headphone jack as a dock connector. Then, connect the iPod Shuffle to your computer and it automatically charges via USB while syncing, so it's ready to go when you are. Enjoy up to 12 hours of playback, and charge in about 4-hours, or choose the 2-hour fast charge to 80% capacity.

Battery indicator: Green means go, amber means you’re low, and red means you’ve almost hit zero. But with up to 12 hours of battery life, iPod shuffle may keep rocking even longer than you do.

Audio support: MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store, M4A, M4B, M4P), Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), WAV, and AIFF.

Pain to Set Up - Buy SanDisk
Reviewer: J.L. from Atlanta, GA on Oct 7, 2007
34 out of 42 found this review helpful

I have a video iPod so I thought it would be easier to get a Shuffle than another brand to use for my daily runs because I already have iTunes. Unfortunately Apple doesn't want you to share iTunes between players. I ended up having to set up another useron my computer so that I could set up the Shuffle as the dual library did not work.

Then there is an issue with Windows XP and this product. First I had to play with my drivers so that my computer would acknowledge the iPod. Then I had to download a patch from one of the user blog sites since Apple refuses to address the issue.

As much as I love my video iPod, DON'T buy this product!!! If you are looking for a small player with a limited amount of memory and aren't techno savvy (I work in IT so I know what I am doing and it still took two days), buy the SanDisk player. You get more a lot more memory and none of the Apple headache!

I love the how light weight it is. I work out a lot and I can't even feel it. The price is great, I didn't want to spend $200 on an ipod. highly recommended if you want something to workout with

I bought this player for my wife's 66 birthday. She is 2000 challenged. (techi-not)
She had never used headphones, ear-buds or the like. Only a couple of live concerts.
She cried when she first listened to a favorite tune.
Learned to use it in one lesson.
Windows XP, easy setup. No problems.
Great product.
