The new ipod shuffle

Apple released the 3rd generation of ipod shuffle earlier this week.

It’s unbelievable small, yet astonishingly big.

With a one-sized flash memory of 4GB, it is priced at 79$. Colours available are silver and black.

A unique feature of this ipod, which is not available in any other ipods, is the “voice over” feature. The ipod talks, and tells you which song you are listening to. Not just English, but 14 different languages.

This is the first shuffle that has a non-shuffle play mode. You can choose between a regular mode and shuffle mode. You can also have multiple playlists for the first time on a shuffle. It is also the first ipod shuffle that doesn’t have the trademark navigation wheel. The volume controls are on the headphones, while the mode control is on the ipod itself.

And that’s not all, it’s big enough for some personalised engraving.
