Apple iPod
 Today at Apple’s Let’s Rock event, Apple unveiled what many had expected: a newly designed iPod nano now available in a multitude of colors, and a cheaper, thinner second generation iPod touch ($229 for the 8GB, $299 for the 16GB, and $399 for the 32GB...that's $100 cheaper than the previous model!) loaded with Nike+ built-in and external volume controls. They also unveiled new in-ear headphones with dual drivers and iTunes 8 – which now carries TV downloads in HD and has Genius Playlists. To not forget the iPod Classic… you can now get the 120GB for $250. Apple has decided to discontinue the 160GB.

 Apple just announced that they were lowering the price of the 8GB iPhone from $599 to just $399. The 8GB iPhone is available immediately for $399 in the US through Apple’s retail and online stores and AT&T retail stores. The iPhone 4GB model will be sold while supplies last.
Also announced is the new iPod touch with built-in Wi-Fi networking and a multi-touch user interface—first introduced on iPhone—that makes it easy to find all of your music, video, and other digital content and enjoy it on the widescreen display of the iPod touch. The multi-touch interface uses new software to present the perfect user interface for Safari, Apple’s YouTube application, and the new iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store. The 8mm thin, iPod touch features up to 22 hours of audio playback and up to five hours of video playback. Available later this month, iPod touch comes in 8GB and 16GB models for $299 and $399, respectively.

 Do you want to make the most of your iPod? The tips below are provided by author Michael Miller from his new book iPodpedia: The Ultimate iPod and iTunes Resource.
AVERAGE CONSUMER TIPS
1. Rate Your Songs
The song rating feature is one of the most underused features of iPod/iTunes -- even though it's quite easy. While the song is playing on your iPod, press the center Select button three times, then scroll the Click Wheel to add or subtract stars. Press the Select button again when you're done. This not only changes the rating of the song on your iPod, but also the rating in iTunes -- when you next sync your iPod, that is.
2. Rip a CD Directly Into a Playlist
Here's a bit of a time saver. If you have a new CD that you want to rip to hard disk and also add to a pre-existing playlist, you can do the ripping and adding in a single step. Just insert the CD into your PC's CD drive, select all the songs on the CD within iTunes, and then drag the songs to the desired playlist in the Source pane. When you start the rip, the CD tracks will be automatically added to your library and to the selected playlist, all in a single step.
