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 2GB flash drive holds up to 500 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.

Having only had a portable CD player , this has really been a great product...The ability to have 500 songs on this tiny little iPod is just the perfect choice for me..Downloading my music was a bit of a challenge but once figured out it was a breeze..Theclip allows it to be placed on the front of my shirt without any pull on the fabric..This provides easy access to the function buttons(on, off,FF, etc)..The charger is great and so far the shuffle has held a nice charge..Perect for me!!!
