Apple’s new iPod Shuffle!

Recently, Apple unleashed World’s smallest music player, a new improved and visible reduced – iPod shuffle. Its unbelievably small, about half the size of the earlier versions, 45.2 mm (1.8″) tall x 7.8 mm (0.3″) thin to be exact and first of its kind as it can talk to the listener via a feature known as VoiceOver. The size has been reduced dramatically by transferring all the controls to the earbud cord, which is actually good for those who do not want to reach out for the iPod whenever they wish to change the music as per their needs.

About the VoiceOver feature, it speaks the Artist and Song’s name with the touch of a button on the controls which is strategically placed on the earbud cord without interrupting the music. The new iPod Shuffle also supports multiple playlists as VoiceOver announces their names, too. It also supports multiple languages as well, though not much of a need for me but hey! whats the harm of having another new feature.
