    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.

    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.

    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've had a 1GB for many years now but decided to buy another one - 2GB for the added memory. I use it for walking and love it's simplicity, small size, and especially the clip. It's easy, convenient and dependable.

    I recently purchased an iPod shuffle because I wanted to have music but not pay for an expensive iPod Touch. The iPod Shuffle is small and easy to use. I could seamlessly find my favorite song, and then constantly replay it. It can also clip onto clothing, so you don't have to put it in your pocket. Overall, if you want have music and don't want a big, clunky, expensive iPod Touch, get the small, affordable iPod Shuffle.

    The shuffle is small enough to fit anywhere on you while you are on the go. You are able to customize by either putting your songs in a particular order that you'd prefer, or allowing it to play at random. The clip on feature holds well so it will stay in place during activity. And a good selection of colors is always a nice thing! The only think I would change is when i do clip or unclip, I always push the button that starts the song over.

    This is my first ipod (welcome to this century, I know). It's just what I expected. Good quality, arrived quickly, was easy to set up and get working. Used it for a half marathon a few weeks ago and it worked great the whole time.

    This product was purchased for someone who loves music, but doesn't need all the glammer or technology og other devices. It's easily portable,has a lot of storage, and the clip actually holds the device in place with little to no maintenance.

    I already had an iPod like this and knew I would like this one. I use it when I am working out or walking. It's very portable and holds lots of music. And the battery doesn't have to be recharged all that often.

    I really like clarity and the balanced sound. It has a super long battery life on a full charge. I don't like that you can't see what's going to be playing. But compared to other mp3's this has far superior quality..

    This is my 4 th shuffle. I use mine mainly to listen to music while I run. So small and has great sound, holds all my music so I never listen to one song twice during a marathon.

    Bought this as a birthday gift for my 21 year old daughter. She wanted the iPod shuffle to take to the gym with her. Great little product. It's compact, easy to carry (the clip on the back makes it great for the gym), and has a great sound. Wonderful color choice. She loved it!

    I gave this item as a Christmas gift to my mother that does not even know how to use her iphone and she loved this ipod shuffle. She takes it with her to the gym or on the train. It is small and it clips onto anything. It stores plenty of music, it is very affordable, and it is very durable. Did I mention this is a great item to give as a gift. Go get yours today!!!

    They don't last, but we keep coming back

    We have had three or four Shuffles previously. They've either broken or been lost. They're easy to lose, and seem to break after about a year to 18 months of use. But they're good enough that we keep coming back. Their biggest strength is that they work easily with iTunes where we keep our music library. They work well, however, and are pretty affordable -- though still more expensive than alternatives from other companies. The Shuffle is great for running because it's light and small.
