Do the new iPod shuffle

I’m hoping this is all leading up to something bigger, but Steve’s also announced a brand new iPod shuffle. You’ll be able to snag it for $79 in October at one capacity, 1GB, and it’s been completely redesigned in an aluminum case, like the 2G nanos, with a built-in clip. According to Steve, “wearability” was of key importance to 1G shuffle owners, so they took design cues from the Apple iPod wired Remote.

It’ll feature a 12 hour battery life and will come with headphones. I’m guessing no games on this sucker.

Updated with picture from The Apple Store and corrected the design inspiration.
