My wife’s shuffle battery finally died. Competition seems to be fairly lame. I can’t believe it hasn’t been beaten yet. I’ve ordered a replacement battery rather than risk some device with 3.5 stars.

Someone build it. Runners worldwide would thank you.




>I can’t believe it hasn’t been beaten yet.

The ipod was too good at it's own game. It's functionally obsolete now. Also, a shuffle has 2gb and no screen or bluetooth.


Sure, for running she doesn’t need a lot of storage or a screen. Run and listen, that’s it.

There are copies, there are people looking for them. Just nothing really good (it seems).


How much music do you want to carry when running? Not like you're gonna listen to more than 2GB.


Why isn't Apple Watch its spiritual successor? Easy to take with you while running, can hold lots of music, supports BlueTooth.
