The new Nano line comes in a rainbow of eight colors. The first model, with 8 gigabytes of memory, will sell for $149. The second model, with 16 gigabytes, will sell for $199. A new feature - Shake to Shuffle allows you shake the Nano in order to automatically forward to the next song. But... What if you're running???
Next... The iPod Touch now starts at $229 for an 8-gigabyte model. The new version is thinner, and there are volume controls on the side, along with built-in Nike + iPod software and a speaker for casual listening. It has curved glass over the display and is the thinnest iPod Apple has ever built. It also has the accelerometer that Apple put into the iPhone, so owners can turn the device on its side to see photos and video in landscape mode.
The 80-gigabyte version of the iPod Classic is getting an upgrade to 120 gigabytes for the same $249. The 160GB models will disappear.
In addition, the new iTunes, version 8, debuts a new feature, “Genius.” It automatically generates playlists from similar songs in your library. Let’s say you’re listening to a song byBob Marley. You push the Genius button at the bottom-right-hand corner of the screen and it generates a playlist of similar tunes. The Genius Sidebar makes recommendations from the iTunes store of songs you might want to buy.

That's all folks!
