The i-Pod as we all know is one of, if not the biggest portable media displayer available on the market today. First released in 2001 with 5 gigabytes of memory which was an unheard of amount, it took the world by storm and launched the already well known Apple to new corporate heights.
There have been five re-releases of the classic version and it is therefore now in its sixth generation. When you read the specifications of the newest model you can see how far the ipod has come since its original release.
The latest version can play most music formats along with being able to store and play back videos, games and images and you can store pretty much anything on it. With eighty gigabytes to one hundred and sixty available, it is basically, a pocket sized portable hard drive.
Over the last few years there have been different models of the ipod, the first of which (apart from the classic of course) was the ipod mini. This was the first to be available in multi-colours and was much cheaper than the classic version and so for a while, ipod minis were to be found everywhere.
Then there was the ipod shuffle, which was essentially a cheap version without the screen. The shuffle is a much simpler version and only plays songs. The lack of a display screen means that they are far cheaper to manufacture and therefore far cheaper to buy.
The most recent version to hit the shelves is the ipod touch. This looks quite similar to the iphone and uses a similar interface. In fact, some have said that the only difference between the ipod touch and the iphone is that you cant make phone calls on the ipod touch. There are some more subtle differences than that, but I would say that is a fair analogy.
So with its many models and updates that we have seen over the last eight years, the ipod is surely the best portable media device that the world has ever seen, or at least the most popular.
