I would expect you've already come across this.
Apple have, by the looks of it, done it again. Pretty much everyone with sufficient fingers to post to a message board have expressed their need for one of these devices. It's basically the Shuffle done right – solid state, colour screen, scroll wheel, and tiny.
Needless to say I've ordered mine. Well, I've ordered one for my 3 month old son (he doesn't get on with the Shuffle, he finds the lack of screen prohibitive 
)
Full review when it arrives…
Damn you, and your “Apple have released something new and exciting” text messages, Woolstencroft.
I’ve ordered a black one.
