If you’ve held out on getting an iPod Shuffle, then your wait has now been rewarded.

Apple is now shipping out the new 2GB iPod Shuffle as of today and it’s a very affordable $69.00. Only $20 more than the 1 GB version and you’re able to store up to 500 songs, whereas the 1 GB holds about 240.

Twenty bucks can get you a long way when you’re bored on the bike at the gym.

Here’s another diamond studded gadget that has no business being diamond studded.

But if you happen to have $40,000 laying around, then maybe you’d want to pick up this iPod Shuffle. I don’t know who came up with this idea, but the thing is not only lined and coated with diamonds, but also gold. Even the earbuds have diamonds on them!
