Apple iPod shuffle Dock

The Apple iPod shuffle Dock was developed by Apple Computer for the 2nd-generation iPod shuffle.

Description
The iPod shuffle Dock uses a modified 3.5 mm headphone jack to sync and charge over a USB 2.0 connection. Some users have complained of the fragility of this connector and its tendency to break off.

Alternatives
The Apple iPod shuffle USB Cables for the 3rd and 4th-generation iPod shuffles are not compatible with the 2nd-generation iPod shuffle. If obtaining a 3rd-party replacement, it should explicitly state that it supports the 2nd-generation model. Another alternative was the IncipioBud, which added a USB-A jack to the iPod.
