Small iPod Shuffle Alternative for the Gym

« on: November 18, 2010, 03:07:21 PM »

My ipod shuffle which I used for the gym is on its way out, I was about to snap buy a shuffle again but can anyone recommend any decent alternatives? Only for music at the gym, has to be small and clipable to things, doesnt have to be mega good but decent sound quality would be nice (and volume, the shuffle was really quiet now I think of it)

Not as small as the shuffle, but got these for my nieces for xmas and they work absolutely fine for the gym or whatever if you're looking for a cheap mp3 player:

I've got a Sony Walkman NWZ A-series and the sound quality and battery life are excellent.
