If you have some extra cash to spare, maybe you should consider getting an iPod Nano-Chromatic (8GB and 16GB) or a new Apple iPod Touch for larger capacity gadgets in playing music and/or videos.

Joy,
It’s ok fren. It’s really more practical to buy an iPod shuffle here in the Philippines than in other countries. The specs are the same and the prices are not significantly different.

Joy,
It would be better if your brother will buy an iPod Shuffle here in the Philippines. First he will be able to get the item ASAP and he’s assured na in good condition unlike when you send the item from Australia wherein it might get damaged during transit. The prices of iPod shuffle in the Philippines and Australia are almost the same. Just send the money to your bro.
Siguro nga ganun nalang. Diko pa kasi nasubukan magpadala ng electrical devices. Salamat sa info fren.
