I love my shuffle, it's perfect for my bike & working out. So when they released the 4th Gen of them, it being even smaller, I was stoked. Then I found out that Apple is fucking retarded. They released the god damn thing with no ability to use any headphones besides their own. I thought maybe they just put the controls there, and then a jack to plug into, but no. So Belkin just released the answer. Blows that you gotta spend another 20 bucks to make right what Apple should have done from the start, but at least there's an alternative now.

So yay them. Too bad for me I JUST bought a new 2gig one for the same price as the 4gigs, but oh well. It's good news for everyone else.
Yay Belkin

While Apple make some great hardware, they do some stupid shit with interoperability.

Re: Yay Belkin
The nigh-monopoly, which had existed on Arrakis under the young Paul Atreides, had begun to deteriorate under pressure from the Spacing Guild in concert with Bene Gesserit, the Landsraad, and certain elements of fractured Fremen.Arathena wrote:When you have a nigh-monopoly, protect it.Ddrak wrote:While Apple make some great hardware, they do some stupid shit with interoperability.

Correction Mr. President, I DID build this, and please give Lurker a hug, we wouldn't want to damage his self-esteem.
