Apple - iPod shuffle® 2GB MP3 Player (5th Generation) - Space Gray

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.

Terrific--Small--Clips On! Weighs about like a quarter. The BEST!

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.

I had an old ipod touch that I used for music and other misc. things and it died and the price for a new one was just not in my budget. I searched for a cheaper alternative and came across this and read all the great reviews and purchased it immediately. So for other shoppers like me here is my review: Battery life = very good If you are familiar with I-tunes = very easy to load music I've sweated all over it during workouts and works great! Sound quality is what you expect but the best part about it is you can clip it on to anywhere and it stays put. I've been running, biking, and lifting weights and it works great!! Highly recommend this product to workout that way worse case scenario if it does end up breaking you aren't going to have to spend an arm and a leg to replace it. :)

I did not want to spend a lot of money because I have an IPhone but I wanted something that was compact and I could get great sound no matter the size. I have tried the arm band with my IPhone but I do not like to lift weights with something on my arm. I feel I cannot get the workout I want when it is arm day. The shuffle is so easy just clip it on my clothes and go. In my car I just plug it in put it in my compartment between the fronts seats and go.

This is the perfect workout companion. It clips nicely to my shorts so it stays out of the way, is nice and small, and since the songs can be controlled by the headline cord (if you have the right headphone cord) nothing ends up bulky. Plus the cost is low enough (and it is sturdy enough) that I don't have to worry about it at all.

I love this small, portable and easy to use. Built in clip so you can clip it on and start working out.
