This is a nice little music player for working out. I like how unobtrusive it is. I personally do not like to work out with cables dangling all over the place, so I recommend the arriva shuffle headphones - http://www.arriva.com/shuffle/index.html - as the perfect companion.

I initially bought the 2nd gen Shuffle because my Nano had a bad experienced being left in my pants' pocket while in the wash (still works but doesn't hold a charge). Initially it was intended to hold me down until I could afford a "better" iPod. The Shuffle makes you realize...

Apple's 2nd Generation shuffle is in many ways my favorite iPod. It's an understatement to say that it's light - it hardly weighs anything. It's great for running, working in the garage, etc. because it does one thing well - it plays music (in either shuffled or linear...
