All these critics would have a point IF and ONLY IF the Shuffle used standard headphones and wouldn't work with anything but Apple's buds. The people bitching about the first gen iPhone had a much stronger case than the people complaining about the Shuffle because that was just ludicrous. Even Apple realized it and changed it!

This whole Shuffle thing is, in my opinion, just an excuse for Apple bashers to get their rocks off and for the interminably oppressed to be oppressed even further.
