I thought Apple understood that the 2nd generation Shuffle was nearly perfect when they chose to simply update the colors during the last major iPod update. Apparently not.
I hope the market rejects this iteration hard. Apple needs to know that going this far to sacrifice usability for style isn't excusable.
Your Dead Right! Without Lowering My Comment Rank, I Genuinely Think That It Was THE PERFECT Low Budget MP3 Player, Know They Have F*cked It Up. Don't lower my rank for expressing an opinion, we all have the rights, even apple fanboys and windows fanboys. but not linux, lets face it, they're like the loser at school (please don't its just a joke!)
It's not even for style. Why do I want to dick around with controls that are swinging on a cord, twisting the wrong direction, slipping away from your fingers because they're not secured...
Look at that picture: It proves that there's plenty of room on the surface of the player for controls. Even that's irrelevant, because nobody was bitching that the previous one was TOO BIG. They could have kept its design the same, boosted its memory, and added this asinine controller in the headphone cord. Everybody happy.
This turd will join the Mighty Mouse, the puck mouse, the FireWireless MacBook, the glossy-screened laptops, the defective headphone jack on the first-gen iPhones, and who knows what else in the collection of evidence that undermines the Apple "elegance" myth.
You know they've really churned out a piece of garbage when the apologists are so roundly beaten down by the chorus of disapproval. It's high time they were called on this crap.
The Cobra Tag may help you win that losing battle, acting as a Bluetooth device that attaches to your key ring and connects to your phone, it gives you the opportunity to find the missing item if it's less than 30 feet away.

Don't tell me what to do cameron, enjoy your lighter shade of grey.
I'm a fan of the first gen shuffle myself, but eh.
