Strengths: small size easy to use
Weaknesses:none
Overall Evaluation: my daughter got this as a prize. she loves it. it is easy for her to use. this is a great product for the younger kids and for those of use that like to work out. I got an ipod shuffle armband that it hooks too. It makes it easier to remember that it is there. as for charging it, I do it while I am on my computer so it is not on just for charging something. That way i am not wasting electricity.

Strengths: Small size, sturdy clip, decent battery life given small size, great price, fantastic packaging, easy to use intuitive controls, iTunes 7 vastly improved, good audio quality for size.
Weaknesses:Earbuds fair at best, maybe my ears are shaped funny, but I never can get them to stay put. Invest in a good inner ear set with a thin band. Much better for jogging or other exersise.
Overall Evaluation: I read other people's complaints and I just can't help myself...........Yeah it's small, it's supposed to be. Take it off before you put your clothes in the wash or hamper. The led is small, but it's quite bright and the different colors and patterns can be understood by a child if you take 30 seconds to read the easy guide card. Want the songs to play in a certain order? Open iTunes and put them in the order you want, then update your shuffle. It's really simple too use, battery life is amazing for a unit this small, and I think it will prove to be quite durable. Overall, a superior product for what it's designed for. Apple wins again!

Strengths: Small, but carries alot of information. Good battery time.
Weaknesses:The headphone cord it came with is too short.
Overall Evaluation: What a great product, I bought one for me, one for my wife, and 2 for an office giveaway. I use it to run, and the low weight of the product does not weigh me down when I am on my road bike.

Strengths: Long Battery Life, Compact, Easy to Use
Weaknesses:Can only charge battery from computer usb port, Must use itunes to copy songs to ipod
Overall Evaluation: I have had several mp3 players in the past. I decided to get this ipod for my wife as she had requested it for Christmas. All the other mp3 players in the past acted like a removable storage device and I could copy directly from HD to the player using windows explorer. At first I tried doing as I had done in the past (copy and paste) but the ipod did not recognize that there were any songs loaded. Then using itunes, I had to manually import each song (would not let me do multiple songs)and THEN I could load the songs to the ipod. Because of this reason, I will NEVER purchase an apple product again.

Review:
Apple iPod Shuffle 1GB
The second-generation Apple miniplayer gets even smaller, and cuts its price by almost half.
Apple's minuscule iPod Shuffle is smaller than a matchbook, slimmer than a microcassette, and so light that you could clip it on your shirt and not stretch the fabric. In my hands-on testing of the updated Shuffle, I found it a worthy player for the price--despite limited controls and capacity.
