Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Apple iPod Sport Case for shuffle 1st GenerationCustomer Review: Poor Extender Cable Quality Summary: 4 Stars
I LOVE my shuffle for running, because unlike any other device I have run with, it doesn't skip and it's small and lightweight. However, I HATE earbuds. Every time I try to run with the earbuds that Apple provides they fall out and I don't really like the feeling of having something in my ear. So I prefer to use my own headphones when using the shuffle. When I bought this case, I was looking for something to protect my shuffle. It does seem to be heavier than the shuffle itself, but it is essentially water-tight and makes me feel more comfortable running with my shuffle, especially in the rain. The added weight in my mind is even a plus, because it helps to anchor the shuffle when you are running. If you choose to use your own headphones with the shuffle, the case comes with an extender cable to allow you to plug in your own headphones. When I was running last week, the extender cable shorted and I was only able to hear music out of my left ear. Thinking it may be the headphones, I plugged in a separate set of headphones with the same results. Then I plugged the headphones into my shuffle and could hear out of both ears. Deciding it was the extender cable, I took the case to the Apple Store and they gave me a new one even though I didn't have a receipt (Apple's customer service is the reason for my giving this product four stars instead of three), but the extender cable is still flimsy and I can't help but feel that it will only be a short time until this shorts out as well. Considering Apple doesn't sell these cables separately, I would recommend that you either use the earbuds that come with the shuffle to use this product (or find a set of headphones that will fit in the small hole designed for the headset) or take VERY good care of your extender cable. I only had my case for a few weeks before it broke.
