Apple Unveils iPod Photo and Special U2 Edition
Posted by Kent Pribbernow in "HARDWARE" @ 01:00 PM
Apple has officially announced two new models to its popular line of iPod digital audio players; the iPod Photo, and a special edition U2 iPod that sports a black and red body in place of the standard snow white motif.
iPod Photo:
The iPod Photo features a color LCD display that allows you to store and view photos downloaded from your PC or Mac, and comes in two flavors; a 40GB model ($499), and a 60GB model ($599). Apple also includes an A/V cable for connecting the iPod directly to any television or projector for photo slideshow presentations.
One other interesting aspect to this iPod is the new graphical interface that resembles OSX, and shows album art during music playback.
iPod U2 Edition:
Also introduced today is a special edition U2 branded iPod that features a unique two-tone black and red design. The back includes autographs from every U2 band member. It also includes a special U2 poster as well. All for the low price of $349. Nothing really new here, just an excuse for Apple to squeeze another $50 from your wallet for a cool color case.
