  • Abstract:  To accommodate the change, Apple created a new form factor for the iPod, making it wider, and giving it a beautiful, bright, high-resolution a 2.5-inch screen. And, because video files are so much bigger than music files, the capacity of the iPod was r...

  • Best-in-class transfer and management software. Classic design. Great sound. Videos look sharp even on the small screen.
