Getting a New iPod Shuffle

footergallery_20070130

Back in November of last year, I wrote about getting an iPod shuffle, and then in the comments thread mentioned that the clip didn’t feel very strong, and that it wasn’t the sort of thing that would let you run safely (depending on where I clipped it, it could fall). I just thought it was a design defect, but then when the new colored versions came out, I was checking them at a store and noticed how sturdy the clip was. So today I went to the Apple Store in Ginza, and after I showed it to them at the Genius bar, was quickly given a new one. Definitely happy to have one with a sturdy clip, as the previous one had fallen off a few times.
