I own both an ipod and iphone, and prefer the Shuffle when excersizing. When running I like the fact that I can simply press a button to move on to the next song and adjust volume, without having to stop, look at my screen (which is even more problematic when a bright sunny day), log back in and then select a new song. Ipods and iphones are both awesome when playing music at home or out-and-about, but having to do the above when running, it's obvious one can loose running momentum. The Shuffle is lightweight and easily clips on to your shirt or shorts. It holds plenty of songs, has excellent sound and a good battery life.

I've bought several of these devices in the past, the shuffle is the best. Easy to operate and the charge lasts a long time.

This a very handy portable music device and you can't beat it for $49. 2 GB is plenty for decent periods of time. The voice over feature is excellent and allows you to find out the name of the song and artist without having to look at the device. Sound and volume are good. You'll need a $15 adaptor (online) to dock to other devices such as my Harmon Kardon Play 'N Go. If you enjoy quality sound buy a good pair of in-ear earphones.
