On my 2nd one in less than a month. First one was replaced due to likely moisture in the headset control.
Now the 2nd one, I have saran wrapped and taped the control. That seems to have worked, except now the shuffle itself is giving problems. This morning after about 30 minutes it just shut off. The only thing it would do is tell me how much battery life I had. No light, nothing.
I reset it and it is working now. But I know this thing won't last another week. I'm really disappointed in the quality of this thing. Having to wrap plastic wrap and tape on the controls is a half-@ssed solution to a problem that shouldn't be happening.
Now the player quality itself is suspect. Oh, and why is the headphone cable so much shorted than the ones that come with the other ipods? I'm barely 5'7" and the cables are nearly too short.
