Digital camera reviews of Apple iPod shuffle 1 GB Purple (2nd Generation) OLD MODEL
Digital camera Review: Another Bad Apple
Summary: 1 Stars
This is a cute, tiny little mp3 player that is totally over priced and since you can't drag and drop, and you have to use ITunes to add anything to it, it isn't worth purchasing at any price. I had one given to me and I sold it here for 20 bucks.
It had one thing going for it and that was the clip. Then I got a 4 gig Sansa Clip for 49.00 and that took care of that.
I honestly feel people who buy Apple stuff are, well, silly. Elitist is probably a better word, since Apple makes everything only work with Apple, and all Apple people have an air of intellectual arrogance about them, but silly, is more appropriate because they like throwing their money away.
Not true? I have a 2002 G4 Aluminum notebook (Again, given to me) that is cute and light with a nice screen and totally useless. The Shuffle wouldn't work with it. It needed the operating system X 10.4 or higher and I had 10.2. Cost to upgrade? 199.00. Also there wasn't enough memory. Cost to upgrade? 299.00. The slot drive on this cute little laptop broke after 2 years. Cost to Upgrade? 500.00.
So in order to get my cute little purple Shuffle to work on my G4 Powerbook, it would have cost me a thousand dollars.
#$%^& Apple.
Instead, I plugged my shuffle into a 1997 Dell Latitude with 128 meg of RAM and a 3 gig hard drive, downloaded ITunes and it plugged right into it. Apple is one strange company. They even snub their noses at their own audience.
Also, as for the ITunes interface? It's about as rewarding and fun as a 1991 Windows 3.0 file manager.
Lean close, Apple people, bring your nose out of the air, and save your money. I know it's, for the most part, not particularly hard-earned money, since many of you have the easiest jobs in the world (education), but its money you could actually spend for functional devices.
(I think it was funny when someone wrote that they didn't want an mp3 player with a screen because they were afraid they would scratch it--There, dear friends, is the type of person who actually purchases Apple stuff)

Digital camera Review: Apple 1 GB iPod Shuffle
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this item for my niece who is 9 years old and she loves it. When it first arrived, I thought it was very small and could be easily lost. But if your buying this for a responsible little one, no need to worry about that. If they like it enough, they will keep up with it. I would recommend this item to anyone who loves music. It has its advantages on being small. It can be easily stored anywhere, especially for travel.Digital camera Review: Apple Rules!!!

What can I say, this small but mighty music player is incredible for its size and ease of use ie. on and off button, the simple charging dock station and it doubles as a hard drive to transfer files or...
Apple Rock's!!!!
Digital camera Review: Apple Suffle: Purple
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this for my 9 year old daughter. This Ipod is better than my nano. For it's size,the quality is outstanding. the buttons on the unit are strong and sturdy.
This is a perfect product for a teen, young adult, or an individual who works out. Due to it's size, this is perfect for a runner or a gym junkee.
My next Ipod for myself is going to be the shuffle, due to quality and size. At first I was hesitant about this product as the music is random, but this is a really fun product!

Summary: 5 Stars
This iPod is perfect for a 40 something female that knows nothing about technology, and does not listen to much music other than the radio. I took my few CDs that I had and downloaded them. It's very simple, and the Shuffle is so small that I can strap it on my arm when I work out. I bought one for my husband who is also technically challenged. We love them!
