How to set up an iPod Shuffle
In spite of its unassuming size, the Apple iPod Shuffle is a surprisingly sophisticated MP3 player. With voice feedback, headphone control, playlist management, and podcast support, the iPod Shuffle is in many ways more advanced than the original brick-size iPod.
You don't need a PhD to get started with your first iPod Shuffle, but even seasoned iPod veterans could use a few pointers on this buttonless beauty. Just as we did with the iPod Touch and the iPod Nano, we've put together a video and a slideshow tutorial on setting up the iPod Shuffle.
If you have any additional tips to share, feel free to plug them into the comments section.

Good video for a newbie.
I don't ever want to rely on headphones for my mp3 player's actual ability to play.
Hope they get back to basics next generation.
