Apple iPod shuffle (1 GB, M9725LL/A) MP3 Player Review
The iPod Shuffle is a small, stylish, compact and easy to use MP3 player. It is great if you are looking to buy an affordable entry level MP3 player or if you already have a larger iPod and you are looking for a compact alternative for commuting, jogging, a workout at the gym or time by the beach; it is a flash-based player so no skipping on tracks.
The Shuffle comes in two sizes, 512MB and 1GB. The 512MB will hold up to 120 songs and the 1GB 240 and the battery will give you up to 12 hours of playtime. The Shuffle has a unique feature when loading music from your computer; it will sync with iTunes and from your library make a random selection of tracks, so you don’t know what’s coming up next.
If you prefer some control over your music you can drag over selected tracks individually: Syncing is straightforward, either plug the Shuffle directly into a USB port or connect via the Dock Connector, the battery will charge while syncing.
Using the controls couldn’t be simpler; the circular control button lets you set the volume, skip tracks, repeat, pause and play, and the slider control selects Play in Order, Shuffle mode and power off, that’s all there is to it.
The accessories that come with the iPod Shuffle help to give you more versatility, with the lanyard you can wear it around your neck, press play and go, the splash sports case gives some protection when by the pool or on the beach and the Armband is great when at the gym or out for a run, or simply put it in you pocket as long as you check your jeans before they are put in the wash as the Shuffle is about the same size as a packet of chewing gum.
Overall Opinion
We wanted a cheap iPod when we first saw it. Then we wanted the iPod nano and the iPod video. So do we really want an Apple iPod Shuffle MP3 Player? The answer is yes. Why? Because of it’s small size that allows us to take it jogging (not that we go jogging very often). We don’t see the Apple iPod Shuffle MP3 Player as a replacement to your iPod, but more like the perfect accessory for it.
The latest tv allow you be also play music via your shuffle. Cheap tvs can be found at Unbeatable.

There’s nothing quite as strong as the bond between fathers and sons. But finding a Father’s Day Gift to tell dad just how much he is loved can be a challenge for sons of any age. Here are just a few of the most popular Father’s Day gifts to honor dad on his special day.
Gifts from the Heart
Digital Photo Key Chain. This makes a great gift for any dad who wants to keep up to 60 of his favorite photos close at hand. The attached digital photo player can display individual photos or function as a slide show. Dad can easily download and change the photos whenever he likes.
Slippers. Coming home to a comfy pair of cushioned slippers is a treat for any hard-working dad. You can find therapeutic fleece slippers lined with memory foam that are designed to softly cradle every square inch of the foot. Also look for slippers with skid-resistant soles for added stability.
At Home Gifts for Dad
Talking Grill Thermometer. This just might be the coolest Father’s Day gift ever for dads who like to barbecue. All he has to do is insert the wireless sensor into the meat, set the doneness level, toss it on the grill, and relax until the thermometer announces (by voice or audio signal) that it’s done.
Personalized Pub Sign. Whether he hangs it in his home, garage or office, a sports-themed pub sign celebrates dad’s personal space. Look for hand-painted wooden signs that can be customized with his name or nickname. This makes a great Father’s Day gift for dads who love football, baseball, basketball, billiards or golf.
Gifts for Work and Travel
Car Gadget Charger. It looks like a cup of premium coffee sitting in his car’s cup holder, but it’s really a power inverter that can run his laptop, phone charger, iPod and more. This is a perfect gift for dads who spend a lot of time in their cars.
Desktop Globe. It’s hard to take your eyes off this high tech Father’s Day gift for his home or office. The shiny globe floats in the air thanks to the magic of a powerful plug-in magnetic stand. This is a cool gift not just for dad but also for anyone who could use a little distraction from work or studying.
Hanging Travel Case. Hanging toiletry cases are more practical than a traditional Dopp kit and a great gift for dads who travel or like to shower after a workout. Most travel cases are made from nylon or leather, with compartments to keep his products organized, plus a hook to hang it up for easy access to everything he needs.
Gifts for Golfing Dads
Monogrammed golf club links. Lightweight aluminum links fit on top of the club handle to personalize it with dad’s name, phone number and even a monogram. This is a classy gift that also helps him keep track of his clubs.
Golf-Themed Cooler. A personalized, golf-themed beverage cooler helps dad stay refreshed out on the course. Look for a cooler that clips securely to his golf cart or bag and has side pockets to hold his golf balls, keys, and cell phone.
There are all kinds of dads and all kinds of sons. Just know that no matter what you give your dad on Father’s Day, what matters most is the love behind it.
