iPod Shuffle

Apple decided to take the opportunity to jump into the flash-based clientele by coming up with the iPod shuffle. It was an outrageously successful move for Apple, making them reap almost 46% of the flash-based player patrons ever since its iPod shuffle release. Unlike any other iPod models, it’s designed at its basic form, and just intends to play quality music. It doesn’t’ have a display screen and other complicated controls. This gadget definitely suits the minimalist.

Apple says that the iPod shuffle is “smaller than a pack of gum”. It is 8.4cm long, 0.84cm thin, and amazingly light at only 22g. This means that hanging it on your neck won’t be a bother at all. Somehow like wearing an unusual pendant.

The iPod shuffle’s centre button serves as a play and pause button, forward and back to the sides, and plus and minus volume buttons above and below. The control system is easily accessible on the front, which means that you can have power over the player even when it is out of sight underneath a shirt for example.

By and large, the iPod shuffle is functional and stylish at the same time. It hopes to put an end to monotony and infuse some unpredictability into your music-listening life.

The iPod shuffle brings a different twist and takes away boredom by reshuffling the order of songs every time you listen to your iPod. This means that you won’t know what song is next in line. A sad song may be next to a happy song, an RnB hit may be next to a jazz tune, you’ll never really know. There’s a new play list each time, truly living by its “shuffled” name.

The iPod shuffle can load up hundreds of songs with its sleek 512 MB or 1G models at available at very affordable prices.
