GORGEOUS DESIGN
I love the design of this - a pure Jonny - Jon Ivy at his best! I love this ipod. Of all the ones I have - all shuffles ever made and a few nanos - the 3rd gen shuffle has by far the VERY BEST DESIGN. Miniscule, minimal and GORGEOUS. I have two of these, a graphite and a green. The battery life is pretty good, it gets me through more than 5 hours. And although the idea of the controls on the headphones was strange at first, I much prefer this to the regular on-ipod controls

Design, Design, DESIGN!
Design Design Design!!! This little thing is the best design Jony Ive's workshop put out! It is so small, so discrete, so VERY BEAUTIFUL! A friend gave me her graphite one but I always wanted a lime - thankfully the seller had a brand-spanking-new for sale. A lot of people complained about the controls on this ipod. The controls are on the earphones. Actually, I find these controls a lot easier to operate than any other ones, and so far I have: the first shuffle ipod, the second gen. shuffle, the first gen. nano and the sixth gen nano. Yet this 3rd gen shuffle is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE IPOD!
Because I am so nuts about this design - and already have two - I decided to get el cheapo knock off circulating around. It arrived and I just glanced at it and immediately I felt it was repulsive. Copy something, but copy it well, at least. The knockoff was so-very-bad. And to top if off the (very bad looking, quite different that the 'real' one) clip had the apple logo on it. Oh, it made me mad...
I gave the battery 4 stars initially, but I changed it to 5 because the battery life is very good. I don't know what it supposed to be (what the official release for that model said) but I often go more than 6 hours without any warning. And the features are just enough. Anything more becomes more cumbersome and eats battery - the nanos come to mind, the 6th gen with all the bells and whistles lasts a lot less than this shuffle.
I simply LOVE it!
