Apple's newest iPod gets a makeover, adds some evolutionary upgrades, and delivers more bang for the buck. But are these changes enough to make a big splash?Upside
The revised pricing means entry-level iPod buyers will be able to fit more music in their pockets than ever before -- an additional 33 percent over those who bought the soon-to-be-phased-out 15GB iPod at the same price. Not surprisingly, the new models feature the same integrated scrollwheel found on their wildly popular sibling, the iPod Mini; the clickable wheel gives tactile feedback, which many users find more intuitive than the feather-touch controls of current-generation players. In addition to a body that's said to be about a millimeter thinner, Apple is claiming the new models deliver 12 hours of music on a single charge -- significantly longer than the 8-hour rating of their predecessors. Rounding out the list of improvements are a new menu system, enhanced playlist options, and variable speed control (for digital DJs who want beat matching in a tiny package).
Downside
The bigger hard drive capacities at lower prices and the addition of the Mini-style scrollwheel are predictable upgrades, not radical, stop-the-presses overhauls. And aside from the silver-coloured scrollwheel, the full-size iPod remains an all-white affair, unlike the multiple colour schemes available for the Mini. More quibbles: Where's the built-in MP3 encoder to make voice memos or to record our band's jam sessions? What about a wireless component to tie in with the recently announced AirPort Express? And is a video iPod ever going to happen, or is Apple ceding the portable video player market to others?
Outlook
We'll need to do our own hands-on testing of the new iPods before we can make a definitive judgment, especially on the issue of battery life, which almost always falls short of manufacturers' promises. However, despite our nitpicks, Apple's fourth-generation iPod delivers what looks to be some worthwhile improvements to an already excellent product. That it's more affordable than ever is icing on the cake.
