Apple Gives 2nd Generation iPod Shuffles to Employees
In an email sent to Apple employees yesterday, Steve Jobs reportedly promised a new 2nd Generation iPod shuffle to every "Full-Time and Part-Time employee" of Apple (including retail). The gifts will be delivered after all pre-orders for the new iPods are fulfilled and shipped to customers. The expected time-frame for the delivery of the shuffles to employees is by the end of the November.
The 2nd Generation shuffle just began shipping last week, after being announced in September.
Apple previously gifted iPod shuffles to many of its retail employees back in January 2005 as a thank you and incentive.
The first customers have already posted photos of the newest iPod, and Apple has posted a short FAQ.

What is the point of publishing these pictures? Why would anyone want to see a personal picture that is no different, or even worse than the photos on Apple's website? Or is this an advertisement for Flicker (whatevr) ?

Dell store employees.
They shouldn't be bitter... After all, I'm sure they'll get a coupon for 10% off that brown Zune. :D

Yes, but not of current consumer goods produced en masse. Cool pictures might be: discontinued models still in service, modified computers, etc.
At least we weren't posting pictures of covered banners again. :rolleyes:
Who was the scrooge who voted this negative?!!
employees getting free iPod Shuffle = positive
posting ridiculous pictures = negative
