New iPod Mini Announced
Apple has shaken up its the iPod world again and unveiled a new iPod Mini lineup including a 4GB model priced at just $199 and a new 6GB model priced at $249. Several improvements have been made to the new iPod Mini.
Both iPod Mini models feature a better 18 hour battery. This should be good news considering battery life has been a common complaint against the iPod.
In an effort to cozy up better with PC users, the iPod Mini can now charge and sync via one simple USB 2.0 connection.
Our friends at iPoditude.com report that "The Mini armband will be available in five new colors (grey, orange, yellow, blue, and pink) in addition to the existing black one. These fancy blood pressure monitor cuffs will be shipping in 5-7 weeks for $29. Wouldn't it be a good idea to add some reflective material on them for added visibility at night when jogging or during drunken stumbles?
Both the 4GB and 6GB models are available in the following colors: silver, pink, blue or green.
As of today, the new iPod lineup consists of the following:
