It’s actually more harmless than it sounds. Engadget is reporting that every Apple employee will be receiving for the holidays a free 2G iPod Shuffle. So if you work at Apple, keep your eyes on your mail box. You should be receiving your Shuffle by month’s end.

And for those of you wishing to read a review of the new Shuffle, iLounge is running what might be the first review on the new DAP. So head-on over and give it a looksie.
