Shake your iPod Nano to shuffle your songs! HA!

13:21 EST
I like the bigger screen, and I can see why they made it oval… to make the over size appear thinner and smaller! Genius will work with the Nano.

13:19 EST
Nanos now have an accelerometer: this allows you to turn your iPod to the side and the video will flip to accommodate the wider width. It now has coverflow, photos and video in landscape.

13:16 EST
iPod Classic: thinner and 120GB at $249
iPod Nano: thinnest iPod ever, just like the rumor pictures… it is oval shaped and not flat like the others…

13:14 EST
iPhones! apparently iPods have 73.4% market share… and accessories makers announce products before Apple wants them to….

13:10 EST
Apparently Genius will record the playlists and uploads them anonymously… thereby making genius smarter and smarter to create better playlists

13:05 EST
iTunes 8! New Genius feature that will make playlists from your library that go together. Not sure how that is different from manually doing it… will have to try that out!

Music is topic for today… darn no MacBooks. iTunes is the first topic
