Why does Apple iPod Battery Pack for shuffle 1st Generation even need to exist?
Use a Shuffle a few times, the battery quits, the Shuffle is garbage.

Apple iPod Shuffle Battery Pack
Nice back up to the rechargable battery. Of course, the built in battery does not have unlimited recharges. This is the answer - extended playback time plus no worries when the rechargable battery fails to hold a charge.
Great companion for your iPod Shuffle
This battery pack from Apple is just the right companion for you shuffle on trips with no access to USB ports. Plug in the shuffle into this pack and you are ready to go. And as with any Apple product it just works, you don't have to worry about buying an unknown brand accessory.
Also I suspect this should keep working with future generation of Shuffle, since its normal USB based. And possibly other devices like Treo 650, Tungsten E etc which can be charged from its USB port.
In short this is perfect and elegant solution to recharge battery on the go for your mobile device and almost certainly future proof.
Nice, but infringes the entire iPod Shuffle concept!
I tried out my friends battery pack with my own iPod Shuffle and I have to say that it does indeed increase the battery life. I usually get around 10 hours of playback and the battery pack gives it an extra 15-16 hours. But again, even though the battery pack isn't that bulky itself, the concept of having a light weight flash player with an attached battery pack is odd. Looks and feels slightly big. I don't use my Shuffle for long drives, since it isn't made for that. Get the regular iPod instead. If you are not satisfied with the normal battery life(which is quite good), then go ahead and get this. But you might just lose the iPod Shuffle touch; lightweight and compact.
