The Bottom Line Apple's fourth-generation iPod delivers notable improvements to an already excellent product--and at a lower price. The iPod Photo is a beautiful and versatile device with a new, affordable price. The fourth-generation iPod Nano is easy on the eyes and the wallet, and you can't beat its hardware and user interface design. Just be sure to give iTunes 8 a spin before committing.

The amazingly low priced updated Apple iPod gets many under-the-hood improvements, but it's still not a true video player.
