The marketing guys over at Apple seem to be really pumping up the "never know whats gonna play next" randomness of the new iPod Shuffle. Since they are promoting this feature so much, saying things like "Daily gridlock feels less mundane when you don’t know what song will play next," I thought I'd put up my guide on how to give any regular iPod the cool new feature of the iPod Shuffle.
1. Get a Post-It note
2. Get your iPod
3. Put the Post-It note on the iPod
Now you can enjoy the iPod Shuffle's cool new feature without having to go buy a new player. Enjoy!

If your iPod's screen gets damaged from the adhesive content of a Post-It, feel free to sue this guy. We'll see how much he enjoys sarcastic humor after that.

And Creative's CEO, Sim Wong Hoo, has something to say:

We’re expecting a good fight but they’re coming out with something that’s five generations older. It’s our first generation MuVo One product feature, without display, just have a (shuffle feature). We had that — that’s a four-year-old product. So I think the whole industry will just laugh at it, because the flash people — it’s worse than the cheapest Chinese player. Even the cheap, cheap Chinese brand today has display and has FM. They don’t have this kind of thing, and they expect to come out with a fight; I think it’s a non-starter to begin with.
