My name is Mike and today I like to show you my iPod shuffle. I purchased this at Target for -- I think it was on sale for like $80.00. So far I've been very happy with it. It's filled up all the way. There's one Gig of space on here. I have like 16.3 hours of music on it right now. I got it because I needed something that I could ride on my bicycle or when I'm on the train or on the house on or when I go running and I needed a flash- based device that will not get damaged because of the constant movement. I heard a hard drive-based MP3 player can be susceptible to damage and this flash-based one shouldn't be. Also it's got a built-in clip so you can just clip it to your clothes when you're ready. It doesn't seem to clip on very well though. If you like on your call or if there's a bump in it though like where the seam is if it's a pretty big seam it doesn't seem to want to pull off. But if it's just smooth clothing it seems to me that you could pull it off so I have to use it a little bit more to find out if it's going to fall off with a little bit movement on a smooth piece of fabric but we'll see. Overall the sound quality is great. The battery life is great. I like the iTunes software. It's very easy to use. It tells you if you got duplicates in your library or anything. The controls are very simple. There's a Play and Pause button in the middle volume up volume down skip track and go backwards the track. It's pretty simple like I said. There's an on and off slider button right here. If you turn it on lights come on. It's green right now. It now tells you that you have four battery life and it goes off. When I press By it comes on to tell you that you're playing something. Pause it again it'll go off. You can shuffle or play songs straight through. There's a switch there there's shuffle and straight through mode and then at the top is your headphones jack. They supply you with the standard iPod earbuds. They work fine. They're very comfortable in my ears. I know some people don't like earbuds but sound quality from them and the iPod is great. If you need a portable music player that's small 16 hours of music is enough for me. I don't mean like days and days of music on my portable device. If I need to change music I just dock it to my computer and change it. So for $80.00 I'm very happy with my purchase of the iPod shuffle. It comes in numerous colors. I like the orange. It's aluminum casing or something is kind of metallic so if you need a new MP3 player definitely consider the iPod shuffle.
