Check Out the New iPod Range to Spice Up Your Runs

I bought an iPod Nano 4th Gen last year to accompany me in my runs.  I think an iPod is great for running.  I bought it from the money I saved in a piggy bank.  I do still have one and still have the habit of dropping 100 peso bills at the end of the week if I have extra money left.

This year, Apple released the 5th Gen Ipod Nano with FM and video recording.  And now, they have an new range of Ipod products.  One thing that is interesting is the completely redesigned Ipod Nano 6th Gen which is now smaller like a shuffle and has a touchscreen.

Now, let me check my piggy bank.  Upgrade… upgrade… 😛

It doesn't look different but there are new features in the new iPod Touch.  The new iPod Touch has the iPhone 4's Retina Display, FaceTime video conferencing, front-facing camera, and iOS 4.1 operating system.  iPod touch users can make video calls to other iPod or iPhone users who've got the same setup on their devices.

iPod Touch prices are 8GB $229, 32GB $299 and 64GB $399.

The iPod nano has been completely redesigned.  It looks like the size of a shuffle except that it has the touchscreen.  It has the built-in clip that makes it super portable like the Shuffle. I love how it looks like.  It looks great for running.  It still features the FM Radio and works with the Nike+ Sport Kit.

The new iPod nano prices at 8GB $149 and 16GB $179.

The new iPod shuffle 4th Gen now has a VoiceOver button, new clickable buttons and improved battery life.  The iPod shuffle is available in silver, blue, green, orange, or pink.

The new iPod shuffle prices at 2GB $49.
