Apple on Wednesday released a software update for the third-generation iPod shuffle, Version 1.1, along with a new VoiceOver Kit. The software addresses a rare issue that occasionally caused playback to stop. A number of other bug fixes have been added, along with support for the new VoiceOver Kit. The 3.9MB download is available directly from iTunes.

VoiceOver Kit 1.1 expands the list of supported languages to include Cantonese, Danish, Finnish, Korean, Norwegian and Russian. Improvements have been made to a number of existing languages such as English, French, Japanese, Mandarin, Polish and Spanish. Version 1.1 is available through the Software Updater.
