Apple iPod shuffle 2 GB Silver 2nd Generation



The 2 GB iPod shuffle lets you wear up to 500 songs on your sleeve. Or your lapel. Or your belt. And now it’s available in your choice of remixed colors. Clip on iPod shuffle and wear it as a badge of musical devotion.

Controls
iPod shuffle pays respect to its bigger siblings with a circular control pad that puts the “go” in ergonomic. Click the center button to play and pause. Click the outer buttons to move back, skip forward, and adjust volume.

Pop the iPod shuffle into the included dock and sync with iTunes. View iPod shuffle dimensions.

The shuffle switch lets you mix up the iPod contents, or play playlists in the order you want. View larger.

Clip
Thanks to a built-in clip, iPod shuffle goes with anything. Clip it to your sleeve, lapel, coin pocket. No matter where you wear it, iPod shuffle speaks volumes about your style.

Shuffle switch
Embrace your inner rebel: Flip the shuffle switch to mix up iPod shuffle’s contents. Flip it again to play your handpicked playlists and albums in the order you synced them from iTunes.

Battery indicator
Green means go, amber means you’re low, and red means you’ve almost hit zero. But with up to 12 hours of battery life, the iPod shuffle may keep rocking even longer than you do.

Headphone jack
The headphone jack does double-duty as a dock connector. Flip iPod shuffle upside-down and drop it into the included dock. Connect the dock to your Mac or PC for a quick sync and charge. Away from your computer? Charge on the go with the optional Apple USB power adapter.


User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Ipod Shuffle
Always liked these, just waited awhile to get one. Am using it for a special trip later in the year, and wanted a predominant music theme.

Works great while working out!

5 Stars Great Workout Companion
I started working out again recently and purchased one of these to take along to the gym, on walks and other activities where I would like music without having to carry a big player.

It is perfect, light and small with good battery life and sound. It does not have some of the features that my other iPod has, but I knew that ahead of time and wanted this because of its size.

I load up a string of songs from some playlists and I am good to go for quite awhile.

3 Stars Get the bigger one
When I broke my original I-Pod (classic), I thought I would save money and buy this smaller one. It’s really cute and perfect for the gym…for about a month until you realize 240 songs really is not enough. You can take off old songs and upload new ones, but this is a pain. My advice is to spend the extra money to get more memory storage.

5 Stars love it! perfect for the gym
This is a great solution for when you want something small and have no need for 25,000 songs or video. It’s perfect for people who like to listen to music while working out, because it has no moving parts and you won’t mess it up by moving around a lot.

I use mine all the time, a lot more than I thought I would. Perfect for non-gym stuff also. So good, I’ve actually pretty much stopped using my other iPods entirely.

I received my order on time, in good condition, and it was exactly like the picture showed.
