Ipod Shuffle 512 Mb 1st Generation By mhydock on Jan 05, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I initially enjoyed having a small portable MP3 player. The IPOD Shuffle was small, portable and didn't require a steep learning curve. The audio quality was adequate and it had enough storage to get me through to and from work. The battery life was not very impressive only lasting 3-5 hours total. The shuffles earbuds were equally as unimpressive. I also do not like how you don't know what song is coming up next unless you memorize your playlist prior to uploading to you IPOD, which is impossible with more than a few songs. Because of its lackluster features and poor performance, I have decided to upgrade to a larger and better IPOD. I will gladly sacrifice size for more features that I didn't see on the shuffle.
