Witness the evolution of the revolution. First it played songs. Then photos. Then podcasts. Now iPod plays video, changing the way you experience your music and more. Again. In lighter, thinner 30GB and 60GB models starting at $299, the new iPod is music to your eyes.

Better Yet
Time for the world's best music player to take the stage for another encore. In 30GB and 60GB(1) models that hold up to 15,000(2) songs, full-color album art and up to 25,000 photos(3), the new iPod makes the most of your music and more. Yeah, you've heard that tune before. Only now, you can watch it, too. With support for up to 150 hours(4) of video and a 2.5-inch color display, the new iPod lets you take music videos and TV shows on the road.

More and Less
The new iPod boasts up to 20 hours of battery life(5), five hours more than before. Plus, you get a bigger display and one more iPod color - sleek black. But here's the kicker: At under half an inch thin, the new 30GB iPod takes up about 45 percent less room than the original iPod. Even the new 60GB model is 10 percent thinner than the fourth-generation 20GB iPod. More features in less space? Sounds like iPod.

Hold Everything
Now you can put all your music in your pocket and still have room for, well, practically everything else. Catch up on your reading with audiobooks. Browse your memories with photo slideshows, complete with music. Watch video podcasts, music videos and your favorite TV shows. Consult your calendar or look up an email address. Even check the time in another city or time your fastest lap. The new iPod keeps it all close at hand.

Spin Some Tunes
The Apple Click Wheel gives you access to your entire music, photo and video library - from one thumb. Control volume and browse using the touch-sensitive surface. Play. Pause. Rewind and fast-forward. Rate your favorites. Create playlists on the go. Launch photo slideshows. The Click Wheel puts everything at your fingertips, so you can keep your eyes and ears on the music.

Sync, Look and Listen
Playing your iPod is only half the fun. Try filling it with downloads from the iTunes Music Store. Choose from over 2 million songs, 20,000 podcasts, 2,000 music videos or your favorite ABC and Disney television shows, download them to your Mac or PC and sync them to your iPod. Add an optional audio cable to play music from the iPod to your home stereo or use an optional S-video cable with iPod to play VJ on your TV. You can perform the same big-screen feat with iPod photo slideshows. Oh, and you can do it all from across the room using the optional Universal Dock and handy new Apple remote.

    Pros: Video, Storage, overall quality

    Cons: Scratches too easily, and battery life

    I got the 60gb Ipod, and out of the box noticed it was the same thickness as my 20gb gen 3 Ipod, but a little wider, probably to accommodate the bigger screen. Connected it to my computer and started jammin it with videos, photos, and music. Overall ...video quality is outstanding. It's equal to the PSP quality, just on a smaller scale. The sound quality is the same as any other newer click wheel Ipod. It still has the same vulnerability to scratches as all of it predecessors, which I figure apple would have looked at. Maybe they didn't fix this flaw because they make money on all the after market cases. On a side note, I have to say this time they did add a nice little carrying type case for it, but while in it, you can't see the screen. Still have to go out and buy another case. Overall it's a nice buy. With TIVO stating it will now start selling software so you can download your recordings to your Ipod, makes this a nice little portable entertainment center, because unlike the PSP you can connect this puppy to a tv.

    Pros: Huge Screen, Great quality

    Cons: Screen collects scratches overtime, no firewire support

    I replaced my old 3rd generation ipod with the new ipod, just to watch videos, i was looking forward to this release for about 6 months. I currently do not have usb 2.0 so i had to transfer all my songs over usb 1.1, yes it is slow but once you have ...the songs on the ipod it is not a big deal. I have downloaded plenty of movies (music videos and episodes of lost) off of itunes. All the disadvantages of the ipod are not very substantial to the ipod's design and user interface. A must have. (especially 60 gigs because when they come out with full length videos, (don't say they won't, it is the same idea as a cd.) you will be very thankful you got the bigger one.) Read more Less

    The 100 Best Products of the Year

    Powerful computers, handy services, tiny utilities, mammoth HDTVs--our editors' top picks include all these and a whole lot more. Plus: the worst products of all time.We rated each candidate on its design, performance, and specifications. We generally did not consider price in our evaluations; instead, we looked for products that represent the cream of the crop. But in compiling our list, some products were such great bargains that we couldn't ignore them. Of course, ranking laptops and Linux distributions in one place is tricky, but we used the same scoring system for each candidate and assessed them as consistently as we could. This year we have also assigned each candidate an "impact" score, to recognize significant products that changed the technology landscape. And last, we ranked every World Class award winner by its final score, creating our list of the year's top 100 products. Read more

    Apple iPod Photo

    Apple retains the iPod's famous ease of use and applies it well to digital photos, but with some odd limitations. If you want primarily a music player with the added ability to see and show photos, too, you'll be thrilled. But digital photographers will wish for more on-the-road-friendly features. Read more
