Digital camera reviews of Apple iPod shuffle 1 GB Green (2nd Generation) OLD MODEL
Digital camera Review: iPod Shuffle 1GB (2nd Gen) - The iPod for non-iPod users
Summary: 4 Stars
The Shuffle might be the poor man's music player these days, but it does a fine job of what it sets out to do. Once you have iTunes (free downloadable Apple software) on your computer, putting music on your iPod is as simple as dragging and dropping files into the iPod's playlist. The device sports 1 gigabyte of storage, which is still enough for hours of music. When you want to listen to some music, you just pop in the earbuds, turn on the power, and hit play. The Shuffle is durable and small enough to put in a pocket, and the controls are so simple you will probably not even have to look at the iPod to use them.
The main downside is the inability to navigate through your music files to select a specific artist or song. The player can either go through your playlist top to bottom or "shuffle" it and play songs randomly. You can skip or go back through the list, but that's it. So the Shuffle works great when you just want to have a soundtrack playing in the background, not so great when you want a friend to hear this new song you just downloaded on to it.
Overall, it's a very solid and functional package for the price, and like most of Apple's products, it looks somewhat cool and stylish.
Digital camera Review: iPod Shuffle 2nd generation - Nice!
Summary: 5 Stars
I originally gave the second generation only two stars due to the pesky "cannot sync" problem, but once I discovered the scroll bar under the settings tab on iTunes, my problem was solved. Now my iPod shuffle is working perfectly and the tiny size is great for clipping to my shirt while running. It is very light and easy to wear. Still can't keep the earbuds in my ears but I guess that isn't uncommon.Digital camera Review: iPod shuffle 3rd Generation
