Hi group,

Anybody on this list heard of or own the Ipod Shuffle?

iPod shuffle and Apple Earphones with Remote plugged in.

Its size will leave you speechless. Good thing it also talks.

The world's smallest music player also happens to be the world's first 
talking one. Two things that make the iPod shuffle one amazing device.

This is small.

1.8" tall by 0.3" thin to be exact.

To create the world's smallest music player, we moved the controls from iPod 
shuffle to the earbud cord. This allowed us to make the new iPod shuffle 
dramatically
smaller, but not just for dramatically smaller's sake. It's also easier to 
use, with the controls located where you can access them quickly.

Easy-access controls.

The controls of the new iPod shuffle are located on the right earbud cord. 
With command central now strategically placed in this more convenient 
location,
you can navigate your music - and activate the VoiceOver feature - without 
taking your eyes off your run, your ride, or whatever you're doing.

Your music library. To go.
1000 songs.

There was a time when limited storage meant you had to leave a lot of your 
songs on the sync-room floor. But now that iPod shuffle has 4GB of storage, 
you
have plenty of room to store hours and hours of music - up to 1,000 songs.* 
With room for multiple playlists, too.

iPod shuffle clipped.

Fashion tech-cessory.

Even the iPod shuffle clip gets the rock star treatment. Now forged in 
stainless steel, the clip attaches securely to your shirt, jacket, workout 
gear,
even your backpack. And the sleek, durable anodized aluminum case - 
available in silver or black - makes iPod shuffle a wardrobe essential. And 
yes, there's
still room for personalized
engraving.

This is huge.

Introducing VoiceOver.

Musically speaking, the new iPod shuffle is brilliant, thanks to an exciting 
new feature called VoiceOver. Say you're listening to a song and want to 
know
the title or the artist. With the press of a button, VoiceOver tells you as 
the music dips down. It even announces the names of your playlists. And when
your battery needs charging, VoiceOver tells you that, too.

Playlist icons.

Multiple playlists.

You've probably made multiple playlists in iTunes. One for your commute. One 
for the gym. One for just chilling out. With the new iPod shuffle, you can
sync your playlists and always find the perfect mix for your activity or 
mood. VoiceOver tells you the name of each playlist, so it's easy to switch 
between
them and find the one you want without looking.

Multi-music-lingual.

A French love song. A Spanish bolero. An Italian cantata. Your music library 
has songs from all over the world. That's why VoiceOver speaks 14 different
languages. So it can tell you song titles and artists in the correct 
languages.

Shuffle. Straight. Stop.

The shuffle switch has three positions. Flip it to the left, and your music 
shuffles for a "whatever happens, happens" flow. Flip it to the middle, and
your songs play in order. Or flip to the right to turn it off.
