I'm no apple lover, but people are missing the point. The 1gig shuffle is $150. The cheapest 1gig player I can find on the web is less than $10 cheaper, twice the size, and ugly as hell.
Apple has put out a simple flash player at a VERY competitive price, and they have the marketing to spin the lack of an LCD.
(Frankly I rarely use the LCD on my mp3 players anyway, and they're always set to shuffle. guess I'm the target demographic.)
