A big day in the iPod world! I will give you a brief recap, but you can read all about it here.
The first big announcement came in the redesign of all of the current iPod models. The shuffles all got color changes. The nano was completely redesigned. It got the ability to play video, games and a full metal outside. The iPod that I have has now been dubbed the "iPod Classic". It has also been given a full metal outside. The capacity has also been raised to a whopping 160 GB. They report that to be "40,000 songs in your pocket." My current iPod is 30GB. That's like having more than 5 of my current iPods in your pocket. WOW!
The biggest news comes with the unveiling of the new iPod "Touch". It is pretty much the iPhone without the phone. This is the thing that all the geeks have been waiting for. You can use your fingers to browse through your music library. It plays videos on a 3.5 inch wide screen display. It also has the ability to do Wifi. That means that you'll be able to browse the web on a Wifi network. You can also download songs through the new iTunes Wifi store.
It's a big day in the iPod world. All of this is supposed to be ready to ship for the holidays. Unfortunately not in time for my birthday. Maybe next year!
