Apple introduces fourth generation iPod
Cutting prices, incorporating an iPod mini-style click wheel, and extending battery life, Apple has introduced its fourth generation iPod. Among the highlights:
- Touch-sensitive wheel with five push buttons
- Up to 12 hours battery life
- Shuffle Songs, a new command in the main menu which provides mixed track playing
The new iPod is available immediately in two configurations: a 20GB model for $299 and a 40GB model for $399. The 40GB model includes an iPod dock.
Apple makes a special note alongside the announcement of the new iPod, stating that rechargeable batteries "have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See http://www.apple.com/batteries for more information."
