I've bought one of the latest to date ipod shuffles 2GB for £40 and I've sync'd up all my songs to it but when playing the actual songs I noticed one or two tracks play then after 5 seconds decide to skip randomly and there I hear nothing until I manually skip to the next track.

Also when playing the track that plays for 5 seconds then skips, I've played it then quickly using the fast forward feature on the ipod shuffle and it goes beyond 60 seconds etc as an example then when I let go of fast forward it plays for a second then skips track automatically. I've re-sync'd my ipod a few times to see if it's fixed and even updated it to the latest software version.

Have you tried deleting the song from your iTunes library and adding it back?
