Apple's newest iPod

As most of us (except ThinkSecret) surmised, at today's media event in San Jose. Simply called the iPod, the new video-enabled device not only has a bigger 2.5-inch screen but is also physically thinner; the 30GB version is a preposterous 30 percent thinner than the 20GB iPod that it replaces, while the 60GB version is 12 percent skinnier. And at $299 and $399 for the 30GB and the 60GB models, respectively, you get a great deal.
Back to some key specs: The new iPods will be available in white or Nano black, and the beautiful screen has a resolution of 320x240 pixels with 260,000 colors. The 30GB version weighs just 4.8 ounces, and it has a rated battery life of 14 hours for audio only (60GB version is 20 hours). This number will surely be much lower for photo or video-only playback. As for content, Apple has turned the new iTunes 6 into a legitimate source for video, with 2,000 clips that include music videos, trailers, and--most impressively--TV shows such as Desperate Housewives and Lost. More later... for now, watch the Apple iPod video and Steve Jobs' presentation.
