HP adds iPod shuffle to its iPod line up
Tuesday July 5, 2005
The only thing missing from Hewlett Packard's licensed line of Apple iPods from HP was the tiny shuffle. Well, no more. The computer manufacturer Friday announced the shuffle was joining the rest of its siblings in the form of the 512MB ($99.99) or 1GB ($129.99) Apple iPod shuffle from HP.
Like the previous iPod models which have become part of HP's line, little exists to distinguish the HP branded shuffle from its Apple counterpart. For those not familiar with the iPod shuffle, it is a digital audio player which is slightly smaller than a pack of gum. It allows owners to completely randomize their playlist of files each time the tunes come on by flipping the "shuffle" switch on the back side.
