Apple to introduce 2GB iPod shuffle

Reuben Lee | Feb 21, 2008

Update: The 2GB iPod shuffle has appeared on Apple's Singapore site. It's listed as "coming soon" and will cost S$108 (US$79.41). Check with your local Apple site or retailer for availability in your country.

After releasing higher-capacity versions of the iPhone and iPod touch earlier this month, it looks like Apple is planning to do the same for its entry-level shuffle range. The new shuffle player will come with 2GB of memory and sport pretty much the same features and design as the current second-generation shuffle player. It is expected to be available later this month in the same five colors offered for the current 1GB offering. The 2GB shuffle will retail for US$69.

Meanwhile, the price of the current 1GB shuffle has been reduced to US$49, down from US$79. A quick check at the Apple Singapore site shows that the shuffle is now being offered at S$78 (US$57.35) instead of the previous S$138 (US$101.47), though there are no indications of a 2GB version anywhere on the Web page. We'll be contacting Apple Singapore for more information, so look out for our updates soon.
