New iPod Shuffle, now with Voices

via @citobito

Apple has quietly updated their Shuffle line of iPods, you know the ones which are super tiny with few buttons. New for this update is the inclusion of VoiceOver, which will speak to you the name of the Artist that is currently playing.

Seeing as the Shuffle never had a screen and did not previously have a way to know the Artists or navigate playlists this is a welcome addition. Unfortunately the voice still sounds like the normal Stephen Hawking’s type voice.
