The third-generation Shuffle is half the size of the previous model. This iPod is tiny, about the size of a AA battery. It is small, yet it has 4 GB capacity which can store about 1,000 songs.

Compact and sleek is the design of Apple’s new Shuffle. There are no controls on the actual unit, as the Shuffle includes new earphones that act as the remote. With the press of a button you can play, pause, adjust volume, switch playlists and now hear information.
