i hav one and i love it. it's in green too. you can turn shuffle off and the only thing i don't like is if you get a game you have to play sideways and play it while listening to music, if you press a wrong button it will change your song. it does fit into pockets.
Coverflow's annoying as hell, no you can't turn it off. (You get used to it.) Shuffle thing's annoying ass hell, yes you can turn it off. The worst thing would've been the new shuffle feature, but I realized I could turn it off a couple days ago. Yup, it can fit anywhere I'd imagine.
