Apple may create an adapter for the new iPod Shuffle

Only a couple of days after it was first launched on the online Apple Stores worldwide, and the polemics about the new iPod Shuffle continue. One of the most complained issues on the new generation of Apple’s small music players is about the controls that are now present on the headphone wires.

The main complaints from users are basically these:

- It’s a little more complicated to manage the iPod Shuffle now than it was on its previous model;
- Users are forced to use Apple’s headphones since the controls are present on the wire, which makes it impossible to choose any third-party headphones.

Luckily it seems that Apple is thinking about an adapter that will allow users to choose third-party headphones to use with the new iPod Shuffle (or even different Apple headphones as well). We’ll be tuned to see how this develops.
