Newest iPod

Apple has just released the newest version of their hugely successfully iPod line of products.
The most notable of the newly revamped models is the redesigned iPod Nano. Apple chose to make the Nano even smaller than its predecessor; the new product is roughly the size of a book of matches ( link ). Additionally, the Nano is now a touch screen device, that works in a similar manner to the iPhone.
To the surprise of many people, Apple chose to reduce the capabilities with their undated Nano. While last year's model was able to play videos, the current version does not. Apple made this decision after doing market research and deciding that the small screen was not viewer friendly.
Ultimately, I would be shocked if the updated products receive anything other than excellent reviews. Apple continues to improve their existing products and develop innovative improvements. Bottom line: don't expect to stop seeing iPods anytime soon...Apple is here to stay.

  1. And truthfully, how am I going to really watch a video on a screen that small?
    Sounds like the best decision.
    Apple always seems to know what they're doing. Which is strange and impressive... how does that happen?
