Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Compact; Easy to use; Terrific sound quality; Decent battery life.

Weakness: Instructions for a novice are confusing; Personally, don't like bud earphones - they hurt; Not a lot of storage capacity (but I knew that going in).

I LOVE my shuffle!! A lot of people criticize that there is no LCD display, but to me, half the fun is being surprised at what the next song will be! Plus, if you prefer, you can transfer and play the songs in the order they appear in your library (or whatever source you choose). The sound quality is much better than I expected. I compared the sound to my walkman cd player, and the sound systems...

Am I the only person who cant get this to work?

Strengths: so far...none because i cant even listen to it.

Weakness: non existant tech support.

im deployed to afghanistan and all the boys back there are picking up iPods from the post exchange. i was detered at first because of price and durability in a "hostile" environment. right now im in WA for two weeks leave. and i decided to grab one. iPods and mp3 players are new to me so i didnt really know what to buy. after installing the software, loading music files and charging the battery...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Size! No complicated menu, just push play.

Weakness: The OFF/SHUFFLE/PLAY-IN-ORDER button is hard to move, as well as figure out what you're choosing. USB cap cover is so tiny I almost lost it the first day.

I got this for my husband who liked my 20gb iPod but wanted his own smaller version. Then Boom! out came the shuffle. Good deal. He only listens when running and used the shuffle function on our Sony minidisc so this was perfect. And it only had 75 songs on it which was fine by him. So the 512mb can hold 120 or so, so we have plenty of room for his needs. The only thing I don't like is the...

I love this!!!!!!!!!

Strengths: Good battrie nice size nice volume can carry it around ur neck

Weakness: can't repeat songs can't choise what song u want to listen to with out searching it

I love my Ipod shuffle. I think it is much better than the Ipod, because with the ipod shuffle u can carry it around Ur neck. When I go pratice for softball I can run around with out having to worry about carrying around the Cd player and I don't have to worry about it skipping!! ( i hate that)

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Very small, no extra cables to carry

Weakness: No LCD, must charge through USB

To be fair, I already own a 3G 10GB iPod. As other reviewers have mentioned, I rarely glance at the LCD and figured that it wouldn't be a big deal on this player. It hasn't been. Plus, when skipping songs, no hard drives spins, saving battery life. I've always wanted a larger USB key for data storage, and this also fits the bill nicely. Thank goodness for Apple's decision to allow the user to...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Small size, easy to use

Weakness: No equalizer setting, included accessories not useful

I really love my iPod Shuffle. I use it mainly for working out/ running. I love how easy it is to program music on it and change it out. I actually really like being able to program the playlist even w/o the shuffle attached so that it is ready to add for the next sync. And I like that once the ipod shuffle syncs it is ready to disconnect. I also own a 20gb ipod, so i really like the small size...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: small, sleek, easy to use

Weakness: sliding switch on back is a bit stiff to move

This is a great, small Audio player. At first, I thought Apple was on crack trying to play up the "shuffle" feature (read: lack of a screen). But, I started thinking. I have a 3G iPod that rocks (except the battery is finally starting to give up after two years). When I go running I rarely looked at the screen. I just hit next if I don't like the song. The Shuffle only holds 512 megs so it not...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Great marketing, nice form factor

Weakness: No LCD, AAC transfer problems(copyright/DRM BS!!), No Drag and Drop of files, Did not fit in my USB port

Okay I admit it! I was taken in by the marketing glitz and the uneducated-iconoclastic "apple-holics'" recommendations. I have a Creative Zen (40G) player, and wanted something very small and portable. This may fit some peoples needs, but not mine. I am an Windows user, and was dissatisfied that there was no "true" drag and drop using Explorer or equivalent. I do not like the intrusiveness of...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Size, sound.

Weakness: Software is awful. Only one computer can manage player. Doesn't fit in my USB port.

My wife bought me this for my birthday, and I was really happy to get it. We both use RCA Lyras, and they leave something to be desired. Apple is brilliant at aesthetics and packaging, so even when you're buying a product that is manufactured in China for all of about $10, it's still very pretty to look at. Silky smooth boxes, supple cords, etc. Apple products just feel nice, and the iPod Shuffle...

Apple iPod Shuffle 1st Generation 512MB Flash MP3...

Strengths: Lightweight. Easy to use. Simple features. Nice to use while exercising. Easy to recharge.

Weakness: No display. Necessary to identify songs by ear. Inability to categorize songs.

I'm very happy with this product and would purchase one again. I like how lightweight the product is and like how I can use it while exercising. Because the product is relatively low cost, I'm not as worried about losing it as I would be a $250 ipod. The features are simple, which is a drawback to those who want to categorize songs. This is not for the hardcore song listener. But for someone who...

iPod shuffle 512MB

Apple’s flash-based iPod shuffle isn’t for everyone. People who want to pick exactly the song they want exactly when they want to hear it won’t care for this display-less iPod and its minimal controls. But other users looking for a low-priced, small-capacity player will appreciate a device that doesn’t skip, sounds good, and plays their favorite tunes with the press of a...
