little while back, Apple brought us all their 1st generation phone called the iPhone. Now, early this morning at 1.30am, news flooded the world with live feeds and coverage from San Francisco where Steve Jobs revealed Apple's latest range of iPods.
Images were leaked out about a shorter and fatter iPod Nano and rumours were spread that a new iPod which is based on the iPhone design and OS X was going to be release. Well all of them were true. Everything and every bit of news leaked out that was discussed came to pass with the emergence of a 1st generation iPod Touch offering 8Gb and 16Gb of memory at USD$299 and USD$399 respectively.
One new feature of the iPod touch itself is the new web browsing and Wi-Fi capabilities while offering a full 3.5" wide screen to watch your videos on. For those of you who have always complained that the iPod video's screen was too small, this is Apple's answer for you and the video playback usefulness of the Sony PSP.
Well let's not forget about the rest of the other iPod ranges. The Nano has indeed grown fatter and shorter but not that is a problem. New features include a whole new User Interface (UI) and video playback! Wow that is amazing for something this short and cheap. Yes, prices have dropped for these models, USD$149 for the 4Gb version and USD$199 for the 8Gb version.
The iPod classic is the refresh of the current line of iPods providing a whopping new 80Gb (USD$249) and 160Gb (USD$349) of hard disk memory. Now this would be one of the smallest portable backup disks I have seen around.
There are new features for the iPod shuffle as well as iTunes but since we are stuck here in Malaysia and have no access to the iTunes store, whats to like about reading that?
Other news include the price drop for the 8Gb iPhone which was previously priced at USD$599 will now be sold at USD$399. This has definitely riled up previous iPhone owners. No news about the 4Gb version but rumours has it that it might be phased out completely.
