Excellent !!
My husband bought me this ipod shuffle as a gift for when I travel to India for 3 weeks in the New Year. I have never had an Mp3 player before but I have to say considering the size etc; the sound is superb, I only want it to listen to music if I'm bored or travelling. I bought the adaptor plug from the Amazon site so I don't even need to be near a PC to charge it up! I haven't really tried the earphones out properly yet but I've used them in my laptop whilst downloading music and considering these type don't normally stay in my ears they've done well so far, I'll have to see what they're like 'on the move'! I agree with all the others who say great bit of kit for little money!!

Washing machine proof
You should have guessed by the number of good reviews that this unit is a good value for money and I am not going to re-write what has already been said. What I will add in favour of the unit is that mine went through a 40 degree 1600 rpm spin, full wash cycle. At first it was completely dead and wouldn't even charge up. After a week of being left at room temperature it charged up and run OK. At first it was a bit hit and miss if it would switch on, but now it is running as it was and never even lost the songs.

However, I would not recommend cleaning it in your washing machine!

My warning to you is DON'T LEAVE IT IN YOUR JEANS POCKET. It is so small, you will forget that it is there.

Has everything you actually need and great value
The iPod Shuffle does everything I want from a digital music player - I don't need a screen or the facility to have 9000 hours of music on it, I just want the tunes I like listening to. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is that the headphones are really bad but I managed to get some better ones for £10. Bargain.

Worst ipod
ipod shuffle is still an ipod but it lacks feature that are most mp3 players.
1. There is no display screen
2. There is no way to check the battery life

However the quality of the music is better that most mp3 players making it useful.

If you can extend your money buy a nano, classic or even a touch.

I have been brought into the 21st century!
All my friends have Ipods so I thought i would get one. Couldnt afford a Ipod nano saw the Ipod shuffle on offer and thought i would give one ago.
Its very easy to use, holds plenty of songs, is easy to download songs onto and you can take songs off and add songs on easily. An ideal modern walkman!
