I've been testing out different mp3 players that I use when ride my motorcycle. i've got one right now that i got for cheap. It works ok but only has 128mb memory that I can't upgrade.

I was thinking about the ipod shuffle 2nd gen (the super tiny one with the built in belt clip) because it has 1gb of memory, good battery life, and it can clip to my shirt or whatever.

Any reviews about it? Good max volume?

and if anyone wants to sell one to me for less than $60 shipped (going rate on ebay) let me know

I've got one...little ---- rocks for what it is. The earbuds are clear as hell, but after wearing mine for about an hour they start to hurt my ears...maybe I should take them out more often. :1 Volume gets pretty loud too. Only downsides is you can't see the titles of the songs (obviously) and it takes a little while to learn how to load the songs on through i-tunes. And if you have a slow computer (like I do) it takes a little while to fill it up. Battery so far on mine lasts at least 20hours.

sweet. ya, i don't care about the titles so that isn't an issue.

I do ------- hate itunes though

Yeah, i-tunes=the suck. I tried just dumping mp3's to it, but that didn't work. Plus it's got a funky base to it...you charge it and load music through the same jack you plug the earbuds into.

go to apple.com, search for "refurbished" in their store and you got a list of cheap cheap I-pods that are pretty much re-turns and look brand new, i got mine for 54 shipped.

the ear bud is ok, i got some phlips one from target for 6 bucks and they sound way better lol. There are some programs out there that replaces i-tune and you can just drag files in.

thanks... I picked that one up yesterday. definitley a great deal. with tax and shipping it was like 57. not bad.

if you can find something for $1 that would put the tab up to 50 dollars and you get free shipping.
