Hi Scott - I have some that cost about =A330 on amazon, gear4 I think - =
and they really aren't very good at all.  They buzz a bit when on and =
you have to have them on in order to charge the ipod.  Similarly if you =
charge while listening the buzzing becomes significantly louder and =
effects the listening pleasure quite a bit.  I went down the speakers =
route because it only cost a little more than buying a mains charge for =
the shuffle but if I were starting from here I'd just buy the charger =
and not bother with the speakers next time around.

As far as the difference between the new and old shuffle is concerned I =
think it is simply a matter of physical size and case material. The new =
ones are half the size and have an aluminium case which looks good until =
its bounced around in your pocket with keys and change for a few days.
