As the iPod continues to be enhanced, and storage capacity increased, we had a look at the latest from Apple.
Apple iPod classic 6th Generation Silver (160 GB) MP3 Player

MPN: MB145LL/A, 160 GB (Hard Drive), 40000 Songs, 4.9 oz., Audio Files: MP3, WAV, AAC, MP3 VBR, AIFF, Audible. Video Files: MPEG-4...

It’s back to basics with the iPod classic, a nod to the digital music player that started it all. The only thing you’ll find similar between this iPod and the iPod of old however is the name. The iPod classic comes in multiple storage configurations up to 160 GB! That’s 40,000 songs, or 200 hours of video, all in the palm of your hand. Album art, pictures, TV shows, and movies all pop off the bright and sharp 2.5 inch LCD display, and with battery life that will last for up to 30 hours of use, you’ll never have to worry about the iPod classic losing power before you do.
