thrice Posted March 13, 2009 Author Report Posted March 13, 2009 Wow, ordered the refurb silver Shuffle for $39 on Wednesday, used the free shipping option and it arrived today! I'll get it loaded up and it'll be ready for my ski trip this weekend. Kick ass! Got my refurb today as well. Quote

jinp6301 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Posted March 13, 2009 Wow, it seems like total fail. Supposedly ety is making a shuffle approved earphone. I hope it has more then one button. Quote
grawk Posted March 14, 2009 Report Posted March 14, 2009 Wow, it seems like total fail. Supposedly ety is making a shuffle approved earphone. I hope it has more then one button. Are you the target market if it does have more than one button? Quote
thrice Posted March 15, 2009 Author Report Posted March 15, 2009 Holy Cats! There is a DRM chip inside the iPod Shuffle earbuds! Not entirely unexpected. Quote
Dusty Chalk Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 I hope this is a major failure for them. Quote
grawk Posted March 15, 2009 Report Posted March 15, 2009 Given the way the new shuffle remote works, it could just be a way to make it so the remote has the smarts, and have it so remotes can be more flexible... Quote

Apparently it is an authentication chip. As much of an Apple fanboy as I am, if they really are going to try and make 3rd-party phone manufacturers pay to play, then that is just not froody. Quote

Hopstretch Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 Third party phones and adapters already in the works Hmm, allowing simple adapters would certainly puncture the giant-conspiracy theory somewhat. Thank goodness, the cognitive dissonance was killing me. Quote

Hopstretch Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 Klipsch stepping up, albeit with "enhanced bass". Quote
Sherwood Posted July 21, 2009 Report Posted July 21, 2009 I'd say it more than offsets that by thoughtfully providing "smooth sound". Quote
