Adding songs to iPod Shuffle sans iTunes

I just got one of the new 1GB shuffles and I'm trying to figure out how if it's possible to drag and drop an MP3 onto the device without using iTunes. I'm at work and I'm having issues getting it to synch since I put all these songs on at home. Is there any way to add a file without using iTunes and without deleting any of my current songs?

(P.S. I tried Googling this before coming to you guys, but I keep getting pages that only pertain to the previous generation of Shuffles.)

    There's a Mac program called ipoddisk that makes iPods show up as hard drives on a network, with all the hidden folders visible. You can drag mp3's off of it, I don't see why you couldn't put mp3's back on. Look for a PC equivalent at ilounge.com.

    The problem is NOT seeing the iPod's HD, it is making the iPod play the songs.

    It won't normally play any song in the HD, they must be added to the damned thing through Itunes.

    Maybe there is some WMP or Foobar plugin, but I wouldn't know.

    I know I've seen a couple of posts here about a Winamp plugin. Didn't think of it earlier.
