As we are aware of Apple is get-ing sleeker and sleeker with the launch of each latest product, the latest iPod Shuffle is no different and is more or less half the size of the prior miniscule model. Well, a cause to be in love with the device is its latest VoiceOver attribute that not just speaks out your song titles, but the artists and playlist names as well. But, it is not apparent whether it is going to make up for the lack of a display.

As its reviews, this 3rd Gen iPod shuffle is claimed to be tinier than an AA battery and is capable of stor-ing around 1,000 songs. Besides, it can conveniently and simply be used with the controls on the earphone cord. Featuring a wearable integrated stainless steel clip as well as a new aluminum design, it allows users to pause, adjust volume, play, switch playlists and listen to the name of the artist and song only by pressing of a button.

Greg Joswiak, Apple’s vice president of iPod and iPhone Product Marketing, “Imagine your music player talking to you, telling you your song titles, artists and playlist names. The amazingly small new iPod shuffle takes a revolutionary approach to how you listen to your music by talking to you, also making it the first iPod shuffle with playlists”.

As the features, the device is also capable of telling you other status details such as battery life. Switch between multiple playlists on your iPod shuffle. In addition, it can also speak in fourteen languages like Dutch, Italian, English, Czech, Japanese, French, German, Greek, Polish, Portuguese, Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish.
