New iPod Shuffle!
iDan
03-11-2006
Bought one of these today (Now available in Comet!) and it's absolutely wonderful!

It's so small it's unbelievable, also, the little dock is quite neat too.

First thing it prompted me to do was download iTunes 7.0.2, won't work with anything less, and that's it.

Also, it doesn't come with the new iPod earphones, which i thought it would have done, but at the price, never mind!

If anyone's got any questions, give me a shout and i'll do my best to answer them.

Can you take some pics compared to some other gadgets youve got? Like next to the big iPod, and maybe the Mac Mini?

Cheers, Chris

Sure.

Will do them shortly.

Cheers, thinking about ditching the 1gb nano for one.

Chris,

enjoy...

it's a wonderful piece of kit, and i love it

the nano has a screen, i'll bet you'd miss that, i do like shuffle though, i have it full of my favourite tunes.

Tbh I prefer the old Shuffle, it can plug into any computer without a cable/dock.

Much bigger though, and to be honest, when would you want to plug it into any computer other than your own?

It's handy for me as I'm on a Computer course at college and store files on it. It also charges when plugged in, so I've got music for walking home.

I've got a nano too which I now use, so I guess the Shuffle will go on eBay.

Telly man?? It doesn't come with headphones???
iDan

It does, but the old style ones, not the new ones like you'll have got with your new nano.

It looks like someone chopped the bum off an iPod mini!

Oh .... and having seen that pic, I'm not listening to anything you recommend about digital cameras!
iDan
05-11-2006
You mean you listen to me about anything else?

Taken in a rush on my compact camera... it ain't gonna be great, maybe i should take a better one and update it?
iDan

Ignore me.

Absolutely. Try macro this time

I love the design of the new shuffle, but I don't know if I can justify buying one, when I already have a 1st Gen, which is in perfect working order. I use it more than my 30gig, which just stays docked in its speakers. I love updating my shuffle everyday, with a new selection of tunes.

I might just ask for one for Xmas, and then I don't have to shell out the cash
