Apple Shuffles iPod Colors

Apple today announced the availability of its tiny iPod shuffle music players in new vibrant colors—blue, pink, orange, green—in addition to the original silver. Otherwise, the shuffle’s specs, pricing, and really, really tiny size remain unchanged: 1 GB of memory, $79, and a scant half a cubic inch in volume.

"iPod shuffle is the world’s most wearable digital music player," said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s VP of Worldwide iPod Product Marketing, in a statement. "Music fans can now choose iPod shuffle in one of five brilliant colors, or they can buy one of each."

The shuffles offer up to 12 hours of battery life, and ship with a clip, earbuds, and a dock for connecting to a Mac or PC via a USB 2.0 connection. The devices support MP3, WAV, AIFF, and AAC audio, and of course support copy-protected music from Apple’s iTunes Store…but don’t support WMA or protected WMA tracks purchased from other vendors.

Shiny and tiny. Hey, that rhymes!

Hyundai is on a roll. In October, the South Korean manufacturer posted its best U.S. sales ever, largely driven by sales of its popular Ioniq 5 electric SUV.

Now, all eyes are on the Ioniq 5’s 2025 model, which is set to become available at dealerships before year-end. As Digital Trends previously reported, the crossover model adds a more rugged-looking trim level called XRT and provides additional driving range as well as new charging options.

Range Rover, the brand made famous for its British-styled, luxury, all-terrain SUVs, is keen to show it means business about going electric.

And, according to the most recent investor presentation by parent company JLR, that’s all because Range Rover fans are showing the way.
