Dh said hed get me an ipod shuffle for my birthday but looking at them he said as have to change songs with earphone cord this would be no good as i have specified new earphones that go round neck as these only ones that stay in whilst running - i wanted the teeny tiny shuffle but now dont know. He said about gettigna nano as then can use own specific earphones but they are alot igger arent they and i would need some arms strap gizmo - what do you proficient runners do/ use? I have an old mp3 at moment held together with parcel tape as is my earphones after dd stod on them.
