iPod Shuffle 1st Generation The first generation iPod Shuffle was released by Apple on January 11, 2005 at the Macworld expo. It weighed 0.78 ounces, and was designed to be easily loaded with songs. It was basically just a thumb-drive and could be plugged straight into a PC to load songs.  iPod  Shuffle 2nd Generation The second generation iPod Shuffle was released by Apple on September 12, 2006. It was advertised as the "most wearable iPod ever" as it featured a built in clip for when you exercised. Although the iPod was aimed to ship in October 2006, it was delayed, and all units were shipped on November 3, 2006. This unit weighed .23 ounces lighter than its predecessor, weighing a record 0.55 ounces! In January 2007, Apple announced it would be making different colors of this model - pink, orange, green, & blue - in addition to its original silver color. The orange color was the first time an iPod has ever come in orange.  Donation: Alan & Jeanie Sacks iPod Shuffle 3rd Gener
