Its adorable, but is it really worth the money?

Has anyone who recently chose an Ipod product chosen the Shuffle, and could you say what advantages it had that made you choose that over the Nano? Thanks.

(There's a part of me that thinks its just so cute I wouldn't mind its shortcomings - but then there's the sensible part of me that isn't in the mood to waste $80 not matter how cute something is. :))

Advantages over the nano? None, really, except perhaps, its smaller and easier to lose.
IMO nanos are much better; more storage, better functions and has a neat screen too ;D.

Wouldn't mind the old style shuffle though,

I think it's TOO small. I don't think I would buy one, and definitely wouldn't choose to drop $80 or more for one.

I dont think that they should have made an ipod shuffle I dont know why people that would want to have a device that only plays random songs.I would suggest that the Nano would be a better choice.

Why would people buy the shuffle besides its small size? The price is just way too high I find... might as well cash slightly more for a Samsung YP-K3 while it's on sale.

I agree. I would want to be able to cue my own sequence of songs on it.

I find it very surprising they made it like that.
