Apple iPod Shuffle 1GB MP3 Player Review - Media Interface

Basic Playback     (8.50)
The basic playback controls are all carried out with the buttons adorning the Shuffle's exterior. Play/pause is handled by the play/pause button. Up and down on the ring-like d-pad will toggle the volume, while left and right will skip from song to song (or fast-forward/rewind if you hold the button down).

Advanced Playback     (1.00)
The Shuffle only has two modes of playback: shuffle and repeat track. While this is not a wide array of options,  chances are most people wouldn't expect much more.
