Photograph: Marc SimonApple's economical IPod Shuffle differs from the pricier IPods in two major ways: It stores music on flash memory rather than on a hard drive, and it dispenses with an LCD display, an omission Apple is spinning as a virtue. Adding track randomization--or "shuffle"--to the petite player, the company is marketing the device's lack of track information as an experience in aural spontaneity.
