Say hello to the new iPod Shuffle. Looks even more simpler than the last iteration of the shuffle. Dont get me wrong, one thing Apple does real well is design their products. Everything they spit out looks gorgeous, but the simplicity of this device just makes me feel dumb by looking at it. And heres the kicker, it uses a standard 3.5mm headphone jack that uses proprietary Apple headphones. Why?, because the new shuffle uses VoiceOver tech just like the iPod Nano. Wanna use your awesome Bose headphones for this? Then dish out the extra $30 for the 3 button adapter. Which brings the total to around $100. For that price, why not get an iPod Nano which has a slew of other features, or why not one up yourself and get a non Apple PMP and save yourself some cash. Another Epic Fail.
