Rumor is that the next version will be an implant with a USB cable port installed in your choice of orafaces.:thumb:

It's those long stupid headphone wires that are annoying, not the size of the player. Clipping the shuffle to your helmet strap and running a 9 inch wire to your ear is the way to go (if you can solder).

i just washed, no not on purpose, my iPod Shuffle. it was the one generation with the clip. guess what it isnt water proof. not sure i like the idea of the new one having the controls on the cord of the ear buds. i may just pick up the older version for $49. later.

Because unlike you I actually listen to music created in this decade and I don't always know what's on, and I like to look so I can learn what it is.

Why would you want to see an iPod video display when you're jogging or cycling? I use playlists or just choose the 'shuffle' mode when I'm using the Shuffle anyway. You can't beat it for $49. I clip it to my bib strap and I can operate the Shuffle right through the Lycra on my jersey like a Star Trek communicator. Cool. |
I like the old shuffle just fine. Hopefully they won't phase those out completely.
I might just buy a 2 gb one off ebay to have one as a backup. |

Wait a minute there g. It's YOUR ipod. It's YOUR music (that you have listened to often enough). YOU put it on your iPod. So please explain, in detail, citing your sources, how the F you wouldn't know what you're listening to WHILE you are actually listening to it.

If you like bluegrass, you must enjoy these guys: http://www.coolfer.com/blog/blog/images/NickelCreek.jpg I have all their albums. They are contemporary. Or they were until the band broke up. Oh well. |
Yeah I have their stuff. A friend of mine is friends with that cute heart throb fiddle player.
Way back when I had started a now playing thread to see what other folks were listening to. As regards cycling and training it seemed to me to be a far more useful and relevant thread than most of the inane crap that's posted on here. |
If you have a problem with Inane Crap then BF may not be the place for you g.
I happen to be the Inane Crapmaster, so I speak with some authority on this. Can you recommend any other cutting edge bluegrass stuff along the lines of Nickel Creek? They are one of my favorites in recent years. If you like N. Creek, one of the N.C. boys hooked up with another musician and just released an album I really liked called Fiction Family. |

But in retrospect, that does sound pretty stupid. A perfect Friday BF Post, I'd say. |
Nickel Creek was a little....cute....for my tastes. Great musicians, but a lot of popgrass mixed in with the bluegrass.
Greensky Bluegrass is good fun. They've got some live stuff online if you want to take a listen. |
