First, there is no actual manual mode here at all. It must have been in my head or I mistaken it for hard disk iPods. There is no regular chance to update the song list from anywhere expect the iTunes, and only on one computer. Period. :( This page <a href="http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300657" rel="nofollow">sums it all up.</a> Well, it’s bad news. First, there is no actual manual mode here at all.

This page sums it all up.

First, the shape, it doesn't fit on any of my Dell PC's Then... this whole controlled by iTunes/rationing thing. Ugh I picked up a 1GB last night and am very annoyed with it.

I don't like that whole "ownership idea. Keep me in touch of how the manul setting works, very interested. Cool thanks. I don’t like that whole “ownership idea.

I usually load the songs at home and use it purely as flash disk in the office. It irks me a bit that, when iTunes controls the songs, I can't use it on another computer with iTunes. It insists that I "transfer the ownership" to that comp, or it will ignore the Shuffle. I'm gonna flag manual use, just to see how it works then. Will comment here when I do that. One thing that got me buffled on the second day: if you don't move the slider to OFF and connect to USB, Windows will ignore the iPod - it will not show up anywhere. I did not try this with Mac. Once you move it to OFF, it's fine. Alex, I did not try to use it in the full manual mode. I usually load the songs at home and use it purely as flash disk in the office.

I'm thinking about getting one although I have a 20GB iHP (iRiver) which I'm very happy with. It would be nice to have this as a backup for walks, sports, etc... while keep the HD one for home, car, office use. One question, how well can you use this without using iTunes. I already use other apps for managing my music and would just like to drag and drop stuff onto the Shuffle, any reason why this wouldn't work? Nice.
