I would like to know how many people are satisfied with their shuffle and how long you have had one without it breaking..seems to me the shuffles don't have too great of reliability.
My experience I've had no problems, My GF had hers since december (2G) no problems, my sister had a 1G that only lasted a month until it had battery problems, my co-worker has gone through 3 Shuffles UNDER his 2 year warranty.
I really dig the 2G shuffle as it is WAY convenient to work with (It clips on damn near anything), has a pretty high durability in comparison to other iPods (no screen) and has just the right amount to fit my favorite songs on it.
The one thing that annoys me is the inability of iTunes to interact with EXPLORER on Windows with the Shuffle you can't just drag n' drop to your Shuffle like the others and the Sync times are pretty high. You'd think a flash chip would be faster than the HD based models, but its not the case.
Anyone have any experiences to share in terms of reliability or otherwise? Please, I'd like to hear it.
