Digital camera Review: Apple iPod shuffle 1gb (2nd Generation) review
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought 1 iPod shuffle for my 18 year old daughter for her birthday. When I received it in the mail and opened the box to look at it before I wrapped it up for my daughter I thought the iPod was missing. My 16 year old daughter started laughing and picked up and handed me the iPod. I thought it was just the belt clip it was so small!! I joined iTunes so she could download music I told her I wanted to check out the quality of sound man was I blown away with the sound quality. As a matter of fact I am going to buy one for myself the sound is that great. Also the price is right I have a mp3 and the difference between it and the iPod is about the same as compairing an
8 Track player against a CD player.

Digital camera Review: Apple ipod 2G
Summary: 2 Stars
Hi,
I ordered this ipod shuffle 1GB silver(2nd generation) along with an arm band as a gift to one of my friends. The ipod was fine but it had few scratches on it. I was totally shocked after noticing those scratches as this is a new one(not refurbished) and felt embrassed as I already gave this to the person as a gift. She would think I bought her a refurbished ipod to her but it happens to be a new one and paid the price of a new one. Totally disappointed with the product. I ordered for a new product with full price and got a refurb one with scratches on it. Hope this review is helpful.

The item was delivered as promised. However, one of the headphone ears has a blown out speaker - happened the first couple times it was listened to. Not to happy about that - but other than that the device itself works great.Digital camera Review: Apple's greatest iPod for the runner

I'm not alone in saying that I like to have music playing while I'm on the treadmill or working out in the gym. And carrying my iPod has always been the best way to take my music with me. The 2nd generation shuffle remains the best iPod for the active iTunes listener. In this case, the iPod generation that follows is not a great improvement over the previous ones. Customers have complained that the controls will short out when sweat drips on it. Additionally, I find it MORE convienient to have a docking station rather than a USB port. Keep in mind that connecting via USB port would also make the unit much bigger.
As for ease of use, if you're an iTunes user, it's extremely easy. You can pick random songs or a specific playlist to fill your shuffle. With up to 2gb of space, it's more than enough to give you a variety of songs.
Just clip this puppy onto your sleeve and turn it on. This is the best workout iPod.

Summary: 5 Stars
Apple produced a mighty mite with this Shuffle 2nd generation, so why did they mess with it and, in the process, provoke much vocal dissatisfaction from buyers of the Shuffle 3. The come-on with the new one, of course, is more memory in less space, and leave behind the old "square" for a phallic-shaped (but pencil thin!) rocking little number. And of course fix it so the customer has to purchase a replacement cable from you know whom--and don't overestimate the intelligence of the consumer: who among us would have any idea about what's on our iPods were it not for an audio announcement before each track?
This 1GB iPod is a gem and is, moreover, highly utilitarian. It'll hold over 200 jazz tracks, and I can put it in a pajama pocket with the ear-buds underneath my pillow. And you don't have to drape it around your neck or depend on a pocket--just clip it anywhere, and it stays. I've just realized that despite all of the possibilities available to me on my iPod Touch (those thousands of apps!), I rarely use it--and then only for listening to music. I would have been smarter to have picked up 7-8 of these at the same price.
As for the sound quality, it's brilliant and clear with the included Apple ear buds, and if I plug it into the audio jack of my stereo the sonic spectrum is as replete, the volume levels as full, as any sound-reproducing mechanism in my repertory. And best of all it'll run 10-12 hours before the next charge. (Wish I could say the same about my Macbook and Mac Air, both of which are giving me barely over an hour on a single charge.)
