New iPod plays video
After weeks of rumours, Apple today announced the new iPod that is capable of playing videos. It isn’t being called an iPod Video, it’s just the iPod, but it has a 320 x 240 (QVGA) screen with 260000 colours. The new iPod comes in two sizes, 30GB and 60GB, but each model is the same height and width as their predecessor but they are now much thinner, and available in either white or black.
iTunes has now been updated to version 6 to be able to handle the new video content and the iTunes Music Store now has over 2000 music videos available to download for $1.99 (USD) each. There are also several popular TV shows that have current and past season’s episodes available to download also for $1.99 (USD). Another cool, and essential feature, is that the iPod also has a video out connector to allow playback of video on your TV.
