General Comments

My Apple iPod Shuffle MP3 player has been perfect, and it does everything you would expect.

Most important - the sound quality is fantastic given the limitations of the speakers.

iTunes is powerful but simple to use [maybe the bad review was due to a having a poor PC?].

If you prefer to use your PC as your jukebox and just want maximum portability + sound quality + good battery life, all for less than £100, then the Shuffle is fantastic.

The only 'missing' feature that wasn't obvious before purchase was an inability to skip (fwd, bkd) by 10 tracks at a time, as well as the single track skip.

    Question: Are you saying that you would like to be able to skip 10 tracks at a time and it only does one, or are you saying that you cannot do either?
