My wife just got me one of these. I put 2,400+ songs in it. I remember thinking how cool my cassette Walkman was, back in the day. This is like a tiny little iPad, sort of. Just ridiculous. It's going to be fun running it through the PA for break music.

| | | | That thing is way too small. I like my device a little bit hefty so I know it's still inside my pocket, and not laying on some side walk. Plus, 24 hours of play back time isn't a lot considering how battery life drains after so many charges.

I still have my old 60 GB full-size dinosaur, and it's still going strong.
One thing that bugs me about this type pf Apple thingy (iTouch, iPad, iPod, etc.) is that they don't put USB ports on them and you have to deal with their parochial iTunes software. Also, you'd think they could put a slot for a micro SD card in there.

It has never fallen off. Not enough weight for it to even lean a bit. It's safe. The clips are pretty heavy duty. |

|  | Registered User | | | | | These look great. I want one. I've had a Shuffle for a long time, the smaller one, and it's the perfect size for workouts and cardio. The thing I've hated about it is that you can't find the songs you are looking for on it. This would fix all that.

These things to me are really really cool, and really stupid at the same time.
Although I would consider one just for the Mono option if nothing else. I use 1 earphone at least 90% of the time, and listening to drums and vocals is not all that interesting.
