that is amazing. its a little too small for me, i like to have something that i can feel the weight of (ipod is the best). but it would still be great to have, and to show off! 1gb though, that is amazing.

This is definitely real. I read about this in PC World (or PC Mag,
don't remember exactly) a while back. Seemed really interesting
considering its about the size of a quarter.

To me, the size is nothing special, things have been trending downwards
sizewize for ages. Thefact that it's 1 GB is astounding. To
me at least....

True. Most flash media mp3 players that have 1 gig, (not many anyway) are usually much larger than this one.

The shuffle has basically the same volume, but is in a much more
convienent shape (thin instead of cubic). I mean, a cubic shape would
be rather annoying to fit in your pocket compared to say a business
card shape.

Has anyone seen the movie "Zoolander" with Ben Stiller? It was
mocking the incredible shrinking cell phone size. When the phone
rang, the character in the movie fished around in his pocket for the
phone, but he couldn't distinguish the phone from the various lint in
his pocket.

The size isn't THAT impressive. It's just wired very effeciently (with effecient circuit design). Although, I don't think they should be getting smaller. You need to be able to hold it.
Blame it on Microsoft, God does.
