New iPod Shuffle 4GB Black

Mr.X. · Mar 11, 2009, 06:44 AM

Hi All,

This is Mr.X. Again.

As some of you may notice the Apple Stores are down.

This is because of another product release.

iPod Shuffle 4GB Black

Product Code: MC164

Enjoy =)

iBlue · Mar 11, 2009, 06:49 AM

Ooooh, excellent! I believe it, since Mr.X. was right the last time.

liketom · Mar 11, 2009, 06:50 AM

does it really need the store coming down worldwide ? for a shuffle!

Tallest Skil · Mar 11, 2009, 06:52 AM

This makes absoLUTELY no sense.

Four gigs in a shuffle. Sure.

Mr.X. · Mar 11, 2009, 06:53 AM

Looks like Silver too:

iPod Shuffle 4GB Silver - MB867

Also appears to use a new interface of some sort as there is a new product code. MC003.

I'm just saying, are we really going to believe all the sensationalist crap from now on just because we "didn't get" what we wanted with the desktop updates?

Well if I recall correctly this poster was correct about a recent update so I tend to believe this one as it's just a shuffle. It's a shame I already have two because a 4g black or silver would be kind of nice. (I use them at the gym)

"we"? I am not outraged by the latest apple slap-face update, I have the previous (8 core) mac pro and it was a steal by comparison.

opt1m4l · Mar 11, 2009, 07:01 AM

I can confirm this rumor about new shuffles

Tragedies · Mar 11, 2009, 07:01 AM

This annoys me because I bought a 1GB shuffle hours ago. I'll return it tommorow and just say it's emmiting a high pitched sound of some sort (hah). If it's just capacity, then screw it. 4GB is great but for a shuffle, meh.

Interface? It's a freaking tiny clip O_O If it was changing design, it'd be a good addition at WWDC, not quietly at night. But it's already good enough. Can't think of much they could change.

marbles · Mar 11, 2009, 07:01 AM

hehe.

This is taking a long time just for a shuffle update....anyone think it could be more...obviously not you Tallest but anyone else.....

let's see if Apple raise the bottom line of the shuffles from £31

Mr.X. · Mar 11, 2009, 07:03 AM

That is all.

When the store comes back online. New iPod Shuffle 4GB in Black and Silver. It will use a new dock/sync cable.

tiguk · Mar 11, 2009, 07:05 AM

If this really is true and Apple are releasing something new this week, there's been some sort of activity from Apple every week for the past month or more.

I'm amazed at their relentless pace. How long can they keep this going??

I heard that it'd be a radical refresh though... We'll see!

Unfortunately with the current exchange rate and adding 15% VAT $49 will be £42 so an extra £10 on the low end (unless there is a price drop in the US)
