Mini iPod Shuffle Clone
By Andrew Liszewski
It’s been at least a couple of years since the iPod Shuffle was released to the masses and it makes sense that by this time even the technology in Apple’s tiniest MP3 player can be reduced to an even smaller form factor.
But while Apple seems to have given up further development on the Shuffle it seems that there are plenty of other companies willing to make clones that have improved on their design. The SC-MP001W MP3 player from SunConnection of Japan uses SD or MMC memory cards for storage making it infinitely upgradeable and also has a built-in USB 2.0 connection so you don’t need a seperate card reader to transfer music. Its rechargeable battery is supposed to last up to 8 hours which is really not that long but given the size of the player the battery itself can’t be that large to begin with.
The SC-MP001W will be only available in white when it hits Japanese stores and will cost about $26.
