Do not taunt iPod Shuffle

Posted on February 16, 2005 by Gene

Yeah, I am a total gadget whore; but I tell you, I love my iPod Shuffle. You know why? It’s tiny. I’ve been using it not just for music, but for data as a USB drive. It’s so small that it’s easy to cart between home and work and it has much more space than most USB thumbdrives — I have mine set for 512mb of music and 512mb of disk space.
So far, I’ve resisted the urge to chew on it like a pack of gum.
I love my iPod mini, too (and my original, first generation iPod from years back), but even at the mini’s small size, it’s a little more annoying to use it for files due to the fact that I must bring along a dock or cable. The Shuffle just plugs in directly. Sweet!
