Today the iPod range was completely updated with a new iPod touch (wirelessly capable like the iPhone without the phone bit), iPod classic (a thinner 160 GB all metal version of the old iPod video), Ipod nano (the iPod classic's fat little brother) and a new set of colour for the (still) 1GB player.
Here's the finer details:iPod shuffle now available in range of pastel colours (silver, light blue, turquoise, green, and a PRODUCT (RED) version. All at 1GB.
iPod nano offers a larger, brighter 2-inch display, supports Cover Flow, iPod games and offers larger capacity. Battery life: 24 hours audio, 5 hours video playback. Available in 4GB and 8GB capacity.
iPod Classics are metal and thinner than before. Capacity starts at 80GB with 30-hours audio playback and six hours of video playback. Slightly thicker iPod Classic also available featuring 160GB capacity. Offers 40-hours audio playback and seven hours of video playback.
iPod Touch offers same (3.5-inch) size screen as an iPhone and is just 8mm thin. "The new iPod touch. It's one of the seven wonders of the world," says Jobs. iPod Touch has built-in WiFi, supports CoverFlow and more. Apple's WiFi iteration means a version of Safari is built-into the device, which is used by iPod Touch users attempting to access a WiFI network. This also means you can use iPod Touch to browse the web - and the device will play YouTube video content or browse Facebook. Battery life for iPod Touch is 22 hours audio, five hours video playback. The device features a touch-sensitive contextual keyboard. Two models are available - an 8GB and a 16GB. Should ship worldwide this month.
Apple also introduced the WiFi iTunes Store. Where you can buy music with your iPod Touch. Song previews, purchased songs sync with iTunes, searchable too. The WiFi iTunes Store is going to be made available in all countries that have iTunes. Ooh-err!
