About this site

Shuffling across the Atlantic

I purchased a 1 GB iPod shuffle from the Apple store online the day they became available, but I also just recently grabbed a 512 MB iPod shuffle for my wife. We both used them almost exclusively during both flights between Boston and Shannon, Ireland this week, and they worked fine. So fine, in fact, that I've come to the conclusion that this sort of device would be perfect for many, many people. For me, personally, the inability to call up playlists, just listen to music from a particular genre, album, or artist, or even see track info is still a bit problematic, however. But then, I don't exactly represent the statistic norm when it comes to consumer electronics. My wife does: She thinks the shuffle works great. And for whatever it's worth, while I brought the iPod photo too, I never even took it out of the bag. Interesting.
