Origin•The iPod is a line of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple Inc.• The first line was released on October 23, 2001, about 8½ months after iTunes (Macintosh version) was released. •Its most recent redesigns were announced on September 12, 2012•In October, 2001 Steve Jobs unveiled the first iPod to the general public.

“Apple did not invent the mp3, nor did they invent the technology that became the iPod, yet they are credited with transforming the music

industry with it. The multigigabyte portable hard drive music player was actually invented by Creative Technology Ltd....In fact, Apple didn’t

introduce the iPod until twenty-two months after Creative’s entry into the market.” (Sinek 43)

History•In 2001, Apple sales fell 33% to $5.4 billion from $8 billion. The company reported an

operating loss of some 6% of turnover. The basic product offer was under pressure.•The company was looking for a consumer digital device to boost growth and revenue

prospects and diversify away from the traditional business sectors into the consumer

market.

A number of options were evaluated, games, digital cameras, video cameras and music.

•In the end, as Jobs said :

“We chose music, we all love music, it’s a huge market and no one has got it right.”•In that year the the iPod was launched, the concept of the digital hub developed. Since

then, sales have increased from $5 billion to over $100 billion [2011]. •And profits have soared to over $34 billion. [Apple Financial Results 10-K 2011]

iPod Shuffle•The iPod Shuffle (stylized and marketed as iPod shuffle) is a digital audio player designed and marketed by Apple Inc.• It is the smallest model in Apple's iPod family, and was the first to use flash memory. •The first model was announced at the Macworld Conference & Expo on January 11, 2005.•Till date, 4 generations of iPod Shuffle has been discovered.

Page 8: Apple iPod Shuffle

First Generation•It was released on January 11, 2005.•It weighed 22gm(0.78 ounces).•It was designed to be easily loaded with a selection of songs and to play in random order.• The Shuffle can hold up to 240 songs (1-GB model, based on Apple's estimate, of four minutes per song and 128 kb/s AAC encoding).

Page 9: Apple iPod Shuffle

•Although an iPod with 240 or 500 songs might not sound so impressive from the start, you have to consider the size of the iPod Shuffle -- it's about as big as a quarter.

• The iPod Shuffle stores music using a USB flash drive, and it is easily

removable and rewritable.

Page 10: Apple iPod Shuffle

• It used the SigmaTel STMP35xx system on a chip (SOC)

and its software development kit (SDK) v2.6, a flash

memory IC, and USB rechargeable lithium cell.

• Due to superior audio technology in the SigmaTel

STMP35xx SOC and SDK, the iPod Shuffle has a

better bass response than a 4th generation iPod.

• In 2005, peak iPod first-generation Shuffle production

occurred at a hundred thousand units per day, at the

Asus factory.

Page 11: Apple iPod Shuffle

Outside the iPod• The front of the iPod Shuffle has buttons for Play/Pause,

Next Song/Fast Forward, Previous Song/Fast Reverse, and

up and down volume adjustment.

• On the reverse, it has a battery level indicator light

(activated by a button) and a three-position switch to turn

the unit off or set it to play music in order or shuffled. I

• t plugs directly into a computer's USB port (either 1.1 or

2.0), through which it also recharges its battery, which has

an expected life of around 12 hours between charges

Page 12: Apple iPod Shuffle

• The USB plug is hidden beneath a cap. The unit also comes

with a lanyard that attaches to the iPod Shuffle via an

attached cap and this allows the user to wear the iPod

Shuffle around his or her neck.

• It lacks a display and the trademark scroll

wheel, playlist management features, and is missing the

games, address book, calendar, alarm, and notes capability

of larger iPods; it cannot be used with iSync.

• Due to the codec not being ported, it is incapable of

playing Apple Lossless and AIFF audio files.

• The iPod Shuffle can also be used as a USB flash drive.

• iTunes allows a user to set how much of the drive will be

allowed for storing files, and how much will be used for

storing music.

Second Generation

• On September 12, 2006, Apple announced the release of

the second generation iPod Shuffle, calling it "the most

wearable iPod ever".

• The second generation initially featured a lone 1 GB model

in a silver brushed aluminum case.

• Apple claimed it was the "world's smallest MP3 player".

Page 15: Apple iPod Shuffle

Features

The new model is less than half the size of the first generation

model at 41.2 x 27.3 x 10.5 mm (1.62 x 1.07 x 0.41 in), and is

the size of the iPod Radio Remote available for iPod Nanos and5th generation iPods.

This size includes the new built-in belt clip; the actual unit

itself is thinner, with the entire device weighing only

15.5 g (0.55 ounces).

On the second generation iPod Shuffle, USB connectivity is

provided via an included piece of hardware which acts as

a docking station for the transfer of data and the recharging of

the iPod's internal battery through its headphone jack.

Page 16: Apple iPod Shuffle

• The second generation Shuffle can play MP3,

MP3 VBR, AAC, Protected AAC, Audible (formats 2, 3

and 4), WAV and AIFF.

• Due to its low processing power the only iTunes-supported

file format that the iPod does not support is Apple

Lossless.

• Using large file sizes inherent of WAV or AIFF files will

very quickly fill the device's low 1 GB capacity. iPod

Shuffle cannot play music from music video files.

Third Generation•The third generation iPod Shuffle was released on March 11, 2009 •It was said to be "jaw-droppingly small" and "The first music player that talks to you“, as well as “the first waterproof iPod”, by Apple.

Page 23: Apple iPod Shuffle

Features•The dimensions of this Third Generation iPod shuffle was 45.2 × 17.5 × 7.8 mm (1.8 × 0.7 × 0.3 in). • It was available with a silver or black brushed aluminum case similar to the second generation iPod Shuffle. This made it the first iPod Shuffle that was available in black.

Page 24: Apple iPod Shuffle

• The third generation iPod Shuffle features a polished steel attachment clip, adopting for the first time the polished steel finishing previously found only on the larger iPods, rather than the brushed aluminum used in the second-generation iPod Shuffle.

• It also no longer had volume or track controls on the device itself.

• Instead, the packaged iPod ear buds included a three-button device on the right ear bud cord.

• This adds the functions of changing between playlists, hearing the song title and artist of the track playing, as well as play/pause, track changes and volume control.

• The official headphones contain a chip designed by Apple to control the device. DRM is not however present in the chip as there is no encryption used.

Page 25: Apple iPod Shuffle

The Voice Feature• It featured Voice Over technology to be allowed song names, artist names, album names & playlist contents & names to be spoken in 20 different languages using the Text-to-Speech incorporated in iTunes 8 & 9.• It also gained support for multiple playlists, in contrast to previous versions of the iPod Shuffle, which allowed only a single playlist.

Page 26: Apple iPod Shuffle

Drawbacks•  It is not possible to change songs or volume with most

third-party headphones, since they lack these controls. • However, since the iPod Shuffle begins playing music

automatically when it is turned on, third-party headphones may still be used in "auto play" mode (with no volume or playback controls).

• Some third-party headphones and headphone adapters include full support for the third generation iPod Shuffle.

Page 27: Apple iPod Shuffle

• On September 9, 2009, Apple introduced three new colors for the iPod Shuffle: pink, blue, and green.

and volume controls from the first two generations.• The control pad is 18% larger than the second generation of

iPod shuffle.

Page 29: Apple iPod Shuffle

Inside the iPod Shuffle• It used the SigmaTel STMP35xx system on a chip (SOC) and its software development kit (SDK) v2.6, a flash memory IC, and USB rechargeable lithium cell.

•The iPod shuffle’s PCB back and lithium-ion polymer battery.•When we open up an iPod shuffle, the first thing that might stand out is the battery located on the back.•The battery of an iPod Shuffle is connected to a printed circuit board (PCB), which holds together all the different parts of the inside of the device.

Page 35: Apple iPod Shuffle

•It's a special type of rechargeable battery that's similar to the kind found in a laptop computer, because it uses lithium to carry electricity back and forth -- a lithium-ion polymer battery.• A lithium-ion polymer battery is still different from a regular computer battery in that it's much smaller and lighter and has less of a chance of overheating.•Below the battery is the flash memory chip, which stores all of the iPod's music.
