Just curious to see if anyone actually got the iPod shuffle and if so what they thought of it. I don't have an iPod but have been thinking of getting one for a while so may start with a light weight version life the shuffle....isn't the lack of control of what you hear annoying?

The I-pod is a decent piece of kit.

The ZEN Micro is smaller than an iPod mini and just generally makes the iPod Mini look like an (even bigger) pile of poo!

Hi I've had a look on Amazon for the Zen - found it for £166 but if the picture I saw was anything like lifesize it is on the large side. I've never seen a credit card that size unless they exist in Texas ;) I looked out curiosity at the Sony and saw it again on Amazon for £140, I'd just like to hear from someone who has one as it does look tiny - but not as cute as the iShuffle. Why can't they make the shuffle with a screen!!!

If smaller than a credit card is big, then yes, your wang is big.

For the £100 it costs for an iPod Shuffle, I'd recommend putting an extra £50-or-so and grabbing a Zen Micro. It has a screen, 5Gb space, FM Radio and voice recorder.

Did I mention it has a screen?
