I've got a Shuffle - no probs here...
They are very very nice when they are working..
ITunes even can tell which one is plugged in, so you can sync 2 seperate play lists.
But, even the ones that don't screw the pooch and die are only good for a year or so last I heard due to the batteries not being replaceable by the user or even Apple.. There are hacks available but still..
I 100% recomment 512M+ solid state flash playas with replaceable batts and taking the time to refresh them occasionally with new music.
Completely flooded, after drying out, good to go. Even the music still there.

First generation of iPods had unreplacable batteries.
If they still didn't fix it, then I will smack the shit out of the next person with iPod that I see, just because.
iPods are the gayest fad of the 21st century right now, worse than Starbucks, fucking fasion whores can all go to hell.
My best friend was even afraid to tell me he had an iPod, kept it a secret for a whole year until I find out, then he was apologetic.

WAKE THE HELL UP AND SMELL THE PAPER MILL WOMAN..
The IPOD's rechargable batteries last for like a few hundred recharges and then will not hold a charge any longer. This is normal..
Some products allow you to replace the battery. IPOD is sealed so you can't.

Sorry to hear that chefbone. I have a first-gen 10Gig one which is still going strong after three years and the battery still lasts me seven or eight hours.
For the haters: the ear-buds are better than any other 'free' offering. The in-ear jobbies are better by far and ideal for a sweaty gym visit. I use my Sony MDR-V700 headphones for regular listening and it's the sweetest, clearest sound I could hope for. I've listened to the competition and it's not as good.
I think they're a bit less faggotty if you keep them in an inside pocket.

It's insane no?
There's no reason why they can't make a replaceable battery - they just want you to buy a bew one.
