Apple revamps its iPod range

newappleipods.jpgApple has revamped its iPod line, slimming down the iPod touch and returning the nano to its portrait design.

Speaking at the “Let’s Rock” event in San Francisco, Jobs arrived on stage displaying none of the health problems that have apparently plagued him and swiftly confronted the reports with a slide which jokingly noted “rumours of my death are greatly exaggerated.”

He then moved straight into the topic of the night, music, introducing a host of refreshes for the iPod lineup. The nano received the biggest makeover, dumping its squat appearance in favour of a return to the portrait design of its predecessor, bringing enthusiastic cheers from the American crowd.

Apple has also built in the accelerometer included in the iPhone and iPod touch, which can be used to flip to the cover-flow display and enable shuffle mode with a shake. Jobs is claiming 24 hours of battery life for music and four hours for video.
