Product Rating: 4 star(s) Apple iPod Shuffle 1GB

Comments:
If you have a penchant for minimalist, well-engineered design then the second generation Shuffle should be on your short-list.

Review Verdict: I probably wouldn't like to have a Shuffle as my main music player, simply because it doesn't have a screen and I like to have a modicum of control over the order in which my music plays. However, there are many things to like about the new Shuffle and it

Comments:
To appreciate the iPod shuffle you must abandon some notions of what a music player must be. For example, if you demand that you be able to pick exactly the song you want to hear when you want to hear it, the iPod shuffle isn't for you. Instead, the iPod

Comments:
The latest version of Apple's iPod Shuffle comes packed in a tiny aluminum shell, weighing just over half an ounce. Is it a complete music player package, or will it leave you wanting more?

QuickTake:

Pros: Tiny, beautifully designed shell. Easy to use, with minimal buttons. Sturdy clip. Colored aluminum looks great and shiny.
Cons: Dearth of features. Sound quality is not as good as larger iPods. No WMA support, even for non-DRM files. Proprietary connector.

Product Rating: 4 star(s) Apple iPod Shuffle

Comments:
If you failed to get an iPod for Christmas, there's no need to despair. Apple's smallest player, the Shuffle, is cheap enough for even the lightest of new year wallets.

Review Verdict: Serious music lovers will desire the flexibility of a higher-end player, which can hold significantly more music, let you browse for the tunes you want and tell you what you're listening to.

When Will Apple Kill the iPod Shuffle?

Comments:
The more I think about it, it's probably about time that Apple shifted its iPod lineup and eliminated the smallest member altogether...

Review Verdict: With the pending launch of the $199 Apple iPhone 3G just around the corner, many people are pondering why they would even bother with the more expensive (though sans contract) iPod touch. After all, why would you spend an extra $200 on what is effectively
