You're fine if you're seeing 'shuffler' in the RedChair menus.

Hi Anna - According to that article I posted about the new Shuffle, it
claims that it will play formats 2-4 Audible content.
Anna, I'm not sure which version I bought of Anapod explorer, if it was just
for the Shuffle, or for all Ipods, Is there a way of checking? In the menus
for Redchair, I have Anapod Shuffler, so I imagine that's the version of the
software I've bought, but don't know for sure!
Andy
