i picked up one of those ipod shuffles this weekend for the gym. and i think i hate it. i haven’t even taken it to the gym yet, but i hate it. it’s slow as molasses in updating (i’m pretty sure i’m using a usb 2.0 port, but i’m going to check the hardware specs tomorrow). and the switch on the back to toggle power/no shuffle/shuffle feels like it’s made of rice paper. i guess i’ll need to fuck around with it, but as a consumer product it’s pretty hard to recover from immediate and intense dislike only minutes after you’ve been unpackaged.
