So here’s the deal with the iPod line.
For the iPod touch, nothing’s changing, except it will now come in white and black and start at $199, down from $229. No 128GB iPod touch, as we thought was a definite lock: the device still maxes out at 64GB.
We’ve already discussed the new iPod nanos, which are the beefiest updates. The iPod classic appears to have been killed off, but the iPod shuffle is still inexplicably around, starting at just $49. That seems redundant to us, how about you?
Overall, this is more or less a software and color update of the existing line, and not really new devices.
