Apple launched New tiny iPod shuffle that talks

Apple has launched a tiny iPod that shouts out song titles.

The face-lifted Shuffle, which is half the size of the current version, is believed to be the world's smallest music device.

However, owning to the toy's smallness, there is no room for a screen.

The device reads out loud the names of 1,000 songs and artists stored on it, letting listeners choose their tracks.

The device, which costs 59 pounds, has its control buttons on the earphone cord.

Surprisingly, the 'music player' can speak 14 languages - English, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Polish, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish.

"It takes a revolutionary approach to how you listen to your music," The Sun quoted Apple vice president Greg Joswiak, as saying.
