Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

NEW: -Thinner -Square -Aluminum -Clip instead of lanyard -Docked USB instead of strait plug -Slightly lighter GOOD: -Very compact -Great looking design and button layout -Excellent sound quality -Much more durable (and less flimsy, I always felt like I'd break my old shuffle in half if I sat on it) -No external cap to loose -Clip is very useful -iTunes Sync BAD: -No battery life improvement (still 12 hours) -Still no screen -Clip is a little stiffer than I'd like -Cheap headphones -Still no FM tuner, mic, voice record, or line-in -No accessories for it that aid in your workouts, yet (like the Nano) -1GB is the largest capacity BOTTOM LINE: At a price point impossible to ignore, this excellent sounding MP3 player continues Apple's great line of electronics. The perfect starter player or for workout enthusiasts. For those looking for a great compact MP3 player, look no further.
