New Apple iPod

Just read this BBC new article about the new iPod - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/6980451.stm. Apple have announced that they are overhauling the entire iPod range to include touch screens and wi-fi connections - http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/.

It should be interesting to use once they are available. Being connected on the move to public wi-fi hotspots would enable people to browse the web (of course apple suggest you buy new music on the move) and access info. Educationally this would make the iPod much more flexible than at the moment where you have to connect to a computer to get new information onto the device.

As much as I love Apple, and I do, there are just too many iPods on the market. People like me will just buy the iPhone over the iPod Touch, you get a lot more for an extra $100. Also people are going to have to visit the opticians more often if they are watching video on their iPod Nanos.

If anybody reading this has bought a new iPod Nano for playing video, please follow this handy link.
