Honey I Shrunk the Kids, New iPod Shuffle…

Apple have just announced a third generation Shuffle, that’s smaller, that has a larger memory capacity, and less moving parts than ever before, with some intriguing new features. The scariest thing here is that this little device will talk to you, hopefully though it’s not a little HAL from “2001 a Space Odyssey”, I can’t do that Dave!

The new device is smaller than a AA battery yet holds up to 1,000 songs, Apple said. The preshrunk Shuffle also adds a new VoiceOver feature that can recite song titles, artists, and playlist names, as well as provide status information, such as battery life. Speaking of which, Apple said the gadget’s battery life clocks in at 10 hours

The biggest innovation for the new Shuffle seems to be that the controls are actually on the native headphones, no click wheel, D-pad on the device itself. Hopefully the included ones are robust enough to handle the every day rigours of your shuffling!
