Hi,

The 512MB iPod Shuffle costs $99, and the 1 GB model costs $130 from the Apple store; I believe you can get both models cheaper elsewhere. The Shuffle has no screen, meaning all songs are in a single directory. You can play them in order or mix them up; load entire albums, or automatically load a random sampling of your whole music collection.

The other iPods have screens and let you organize music by artist, album, and playlist. They are meant to hold your entire music collection or large portions thereof. Because they hold so much more (anywhere from 3 GB to 80, I believe), it would be hard to locate what you want without seeing the screen.

Also, the Shuffle uses flash memory, while the other iPods use a hard disk.

Cheers,
Anna
