world's smallest ipod? they make it sound like they have competitors.

yay! only 1gb and no screen..

Why have this when you can just put a polished hunk of scrap aluminum in your pocket?

Based on the Apple tradition, that'd be even sleeker, even fewer features, and even easier to scratch. No way to replace a battery either so it's like the ultimate in iMP3 players.

Useless. Seriously. Even apple diehards have to question why the shuffle exists.

You can do so much better than this.

C'mon guys - these things are great. Use a smart playlist, load it up with favories and enjoy the music for hours. No muss, no fuss.

lol what a rip off

My daughter has a nano and a shuffle. The shuffle has not moved from her desk in a year-useless.

the ipod shuffle is overated & overpriced. get any sandisk mp3 player instead.

Are the earphones refurbished too? All the bits of yellow wax removed from the tiny holes?

i miss my 1st gen shuffle. dont need lcd, easy to use, best tiny player. too bad about the battery but there might be some hacks around on how to replace it. i won't buy this or any overpriced ipod.

I have a Nano and a shuffle. I find myself using the shuffle when riding my mountain bike, or otherwise excercising and the nano around the house. Both are fine. The downside of this one is you can't do playlists and there is no display. When I'm riding my bike, I don't care about any of this and the shuffle is even easier to adjust volume and skip songs while riding. It weighs almost nothing and the clip has a strong spring.

Great little player. Best for working out, riding, mowing the lawn, or other tasks where you just want to listen to whatever is on. I made a 'shuffle' playlist on itunes and sync it with that. Easy to operate without looking at it, weighs next to nothing and clips to almost anything. Don't let the know it all haters steer you wrong.

It is expensive

If you jog, it's useful. Other than that, it's not really. I hate apple, but I still bought a shuffle because nothing else seems to come close to the size.

Looks like CompUSA is offering $1.99 shipping if you order before November 27. That makes this $32 shipped.

This unit is also sold at the Apple Store for $39 shipped, but the extra $2 (now $7) gets you a one year warranty, and new earbuds.

CompUSA's price for extended warranty (through CompUSA) is $14. Apple warranty is probably better.

This unit is good for exercise, walking around, or mowing the lawn. If you don't do any of those things, then you're not the target audience.

I have one, and I like it a lot. It's super simple, but it does the job, while looking pretty nice...

Yeah, good for working out when you just need high-energy background noise. This is not meant to be a full-featured mp3 player guys....

My real complaint about these is the lack of display- you can get something with a display for about the same price. It will be bigger, but displays need more space. I'm not talking color screen suitable for movies, I mean suitable for changing songs/playlists, etc. With this one you're pretty much tethered to the computer and/or your playlists. Very small and light, but a lot of people work out with their Nanos and don't seem to mind that, and what I'm talking about is smaller/lighter than a Nano.

But whatever floats your boat. I'm not an apple hater, I'm just not a big fan.

These are smaller even than the picture makes them seem.
