Good Points: Really good delivery from the iPod online store and with free engraving. The coloured led lights really show you what's happening with the iPod and the overall feel and size of the beast is really good, I put together a music library on iTunes over weeks while I saved for the shuffle, then when it came I plugged it in and all my music was on it in less than a minute. Very Very impressed although I've only had it for around an hour! The iPod may be criticised for not having a screen, but get a iPod nano or video then! The iPod shuffle comes in 5 colours so people get adventurous, don't be boring with silver. I got a green one...
Bad Points: Bad points, none yet the iPod is still behaving itself, oh yeah the memory choice of the iPod shuffle it only comes as a 1gb model, although that's enough for me.
General comments: Very good get one! Although I only really got mine for travelling around, to school every day, a 2 mile bike ride there and 2 miles back. If you want an MP3 player with a screen then get an iPod nano or 30gb iPod video or whatever as iTunes is very helpful and easy.
HAPPY LISTENING!

I got the iPod Shuffle 2nd generation purely for using at the gym so I don't have to put up with the usual nonsense other patrons listen to.

It is incredibly small in the flesh, even though I had often spied it in the shops and gazed through the plastic packaging with lustful eyes.
The Shuffle is all metal and feels solid in the hand and heavier than I expected. It synced with my Mac Mini with all the efficiency I expecte ...

A loud hissing background noise, especially with good quality in-ear phones makes the shuffle all but impossible to listen to. I had it replaced twice but all three suffered the exact same problem. If you use the earphones that come with it and only use it in noisy environments this won't be much of a problem, but with better earphones the noise was audible even when cycling. Since the player has no obvious up or down, you never know whether you are turning the volume up or down, or going forwa ...

It is an overall decent purchase but I suggest for paying the extra $90 or so for the nano is a much better purchase as you can get the screen and will be able to select specific songs as well as hold more too.

Got this in the States last year. WOW! Think it's a fantastic system. I didn't want to be another ipod person, but it really is great. I have so much music on HDD that to have a system which I can pull music onto is good. I got this as a replacement to my old MP3 player (which some one put between their legs while on the M25,on a motorbike!).
There are a couple of downsides;
1 - you need the apple iTunes to transfer the music. Yes, MP3 can be directly transferred as if the iPod is a usb dri ...
