Ipod Shuffle 3G, love it or hate it

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

ipod shuffle 3GIpod Shuffle 3G (third generation) now is much smaller and much sleeker with a whooping 4 Gigabyte of capacity and with the control button located on the earphone it also comes with revolutionary voice over feature that tel you the title, artist of the track even the status of your battery this latest ipod shuffle surely love by many. But here’s the reason why I won’t use Ipod shuffle 3, ipod shuffle 3G wont let you use different earphone and for me thats a major problem.

I’m using ipod now but I’m not using the original earphone for security reason, but then you still have the option to use third party earphone but you cannot skip track and stuck in one level volume. I don’t know if the rumor is true that there is a DRM chip on this particular ipod earphone.
