Time to mix things up. Meet iPod shuffle, the unpredictable new
iPod. What will it play next? Can it read your mind? Can it read your moods?
Load it up. Put it on. See where it takes you. Choose from pocket-size 512MB or
1G models starting at $99 and surprise yourself.
Random is the New Order
Welcome to a life less orderly. As official soundtrack to the random
revolution, the iPod Shuffle Songs setting takes you on a unique journey through
your music collection — you never know what’s around the next tune. Meet your
new ride. More roadster than Rolls, iPod shuffle rejects routine by serving up
your favorite songs in a different order every time. Just plug iPod shuffle into
your computer’s USB port, let
iTunes Autofill it with up to 240 songs(1) and get a new
experience with every connection. The trail you run every day looks different
with an iPod shuffle. Daily gridlock feels less mundane when you don’t know what
song will play next. iPod shuffle adds musical spontaneity to your life. Lose
control. Love it.
DJ Your Day
If you favor cycling to a hip-hop soundtrack and snowboarding to a little
electronica, Autofill iPod shuffle from a specific iTunes Playlist and roll.
Download an album from the iTunes Music Store and listen to it in order before
you Shuffle it into your collection. Or just drag and drop individual songs from
iTunes onto iPod shuffle. With Play in Order mode, you manage the music. If
things take a turn for the predictable, never fear. Turn iPod shuffle over, flip
the slider to Shuffle and mix on the go.
Goes with Everything
iPod shuffle weighs as little as a car key and makes a tuneful fashion
statement. Just throw the included lanyard around your neck and take a walk. Or
run. Or ride. There’s nowhere your skip-free iPod shuffle can’t go, and with up
to 12 hours(3) of continuous playback time, it keeps going as long as
you do. A neat little cap protects the USB connector, and those signature white
earbud headphones tell the world you love to listen in style. You can even make
your iPod shuffle splash-proof, arm-hugging and longer-running with optional
accessories. Ready for anything from a Transatlantic flight to a weekend at the
beach, the iPod shuffle makes the perfect, low-maintenance pal.
Touch of Genius
Good things really do come in small packages. The controls on the iPod
shuffle feel as intuitive and easy to use as those on every iPod model. Play,
pause, skip, repeat, shuffle and hold at the touch of a thumb: The circular,
ergonomic controls and one-click slider make it simple to listen without
looking.
The Music Store in Your House
Add to the iPod shuffle mix with songs downloaded from the iTunes Music
Store. Browse and preview more than one million songs, then buy what you want,
24-7, from the comfort of your Mac or PC. With the iTunes Music Store and iPod
shuffle, you’ll always have music at hand…literally.
Plug-and-Playlists
iPod shuffle makes syncing a piece of cake. Cupcake, even. Use the optional
Dock to connect to your computer or just plug iPod shuffle directly into a USB
port on any computer(4). Then drag and drop individual songs,
Autofill your favorite playlists or Autofill your iPod shuffle with a random
sampling from your music library. Since iPod shuffle automatically charges while
syncing, it stays ready for your next adventure.
