are accesories necessary: I saw on a tv sale show this 4th generation ipod shuffle for $99, but it came with 2 earphone sets, splitter, car adapter, retractable audio cable and power adapter. i only need and want a lightweight item that i can download...

That's a lot of junk for no reason. The 4th generation charges from your USB serial port. You just need a basic 2 Gb model for $45.

You can listen to anything you would normally be able to download to your iPod shuffle. If you already have another iPod shuffle then it will act exactly the same. Does that make sense?

Here's another viewpoint for your consideration. You might want a nice big classic with tons of storage for *all* your music and other files (I have a 60 GB with tons o' songs, podcasts, and photos). I am currently considering a cute little shuffle or nano to hold a small subset of my total collection, for taking out on walks or whatnot when I want some of my music accessible and don't want to lug around my heavy 60 GB 'pod. So there's a possible reason why someone might want 2 iPods. :-)

You may have to purchase adaptor as the plug that comes with it is for the older model iPhones/iPods. We used it for my iPhone 4 and our iPod, works great!! Keeps the device very stable and there are no issues with either moving around. Would buy it again!!

It comes with the iPod and the cord to update/charge. Over a year and I've never had any issues. Head up, you should probably get a case for it. I just bought a clear one for less than $5 and it definetly came in hand as many times as I drop mine.

The iPod shuffle comes with the docking station and the headphones included in the box. Everything you would need to start using it, and perfect for a 9 year old girl. They are very tough and durable, though somewhat small (might be easy to loose).

The IPOD touch comes with in-ear headphones and a USB charging cable. I would recommend that you purchase a AC charging cable.

Yes, it includes the headphone adapter. Some headphones don't actually need it though. It just depends on how big the connector is on your headphones.

The "new" ones that I purchased have come with a mini USB cord that plugs into a computer to charge (and to transfer MP3 files) or into a standard USB/AC adapter (not supplied). It also came with earbud holder, earbuds adaptors and software; although I never used the software, I just used it like an external USB drive and drug the MP3's to it like any MP3 player.

I usually buy a Y-Audio plug which plugs into the stereo outputs of the receiver and can plug into an iPhone or iPod. I usually carry it around with me because I invariably end up in someone's home and they love the music on my iPod they want to hear it through their stereo system. You can get it in Radio Shack for about $5 or $6.

Yes. You get the power adapter, travel case, battery and remote control. I would advise getting an extra battery. It's cheaper if you purchase it with the package. Note that you would need an adapter to connect the new generation of iPods and iPhones (5 and 5s)

It would be perfect! Do you have an iPod? If not you can purchase a $4 wire from Radio Shack to plug into the earphone jack of a laptop or CD player. Note that you iPod should be the last generation before the current iPod because the the iPod slot is a 30-pin connector and the newer iPods have a different connector that requires a $35 adapter. Also note that there have been complaints about the adapter.

iPad Air adapters were NOT included in the box when I ordered. I checked the IK Multimedia website and it seems that this may be an early box (prior to release of iPad Air), which did not have the adapters, but you can buy them for $14.99. Left feedback for seller, awaiting resolution. I am not paying extra for the adapters, period.

Yes, you can use an iPod shuffle using a double-ended headphone cord, plugged into the Audio In port. The shuffle does not have the wide end to mount it on the front of the unit like a standard iPod nano or iPhone.

Shelly, Correct, you need a bluetooh adapter in order to connect the shuffle to a bluetooth enabled device such as a radio. The ipod nano and touch comes with bluetooth capabilities. The shuffle does not have bluetooth capablities. Regards, rpelectronics

Fussy About Clock Radios, If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay. iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped. Godspeed! ~SWWPD
