When it comes to portable media players, no one can ignore the gigantic presence of Apple, who has been consistently setting the standards for others. Apple is literally on the top with its superb iPod offerings and you would certainly find your favourite one among such a comprehensive range of options. Apple's newest and the most refined iPod has just hit the music market with a sheer promise to live up to the ever-growing expectations of music lovers. Well, this new performer is the Apple iPod Shuffle, which is endowed with all those dream functionalities, which you would surely love to have.

Are you a workout enthusiast? An avid runner or jogger? Then you know the frustration of wanting to workout to music and having to lug around a bulky music player. It weighs you down. Chances are you'll drop it at some point. Plenty of people have...multiple times. Where do you put it? In your pocket right? So it sits there in your pocket, with the earphones cord stretching to its limit to reach your ear. Not very comfortable, is it?

Of all the iPod shuffle features, the single most apparent is that it is probably the most casual of the Apple MP3 Players on the market today. Apple has succeeded in launching perhaps the tiniest and simplest player, and it has a price tag to match: $79. It also comes in 5 different colors, giving a choice for any taste.

When shopping for an iPod nano, keep a couple things in mind. What is the single most important thing when buying something? Let me say it another way. You've done your research about a particular product. You've glanced at all the features and advantages. You even went over to look at the product at the store to try it out. But you ended up not buying. Why? Was it the price? The offer? The competition? Maybe, but not necessarily. The fact is, it probably did not fulfill a need...solve a problem.

Basically, the only thing that hasn't changed with the new nano is its name. It sports a retro design, a much brighter display, tons of battery life and a large storage capacity -- all capsuled in a sturdy shell an thinner design. Don't let the extremely thin design fool you, it has plenty of room to hold all your favorite tunes...thousands to be exact. Did we mention video? Now you can watch all your favorite movies or TV shows while on the go. Durable construction and the attractive array of colors make the Apple iPod nano a must have for the music or video lover in you.

Do you have more music and movies than you know what to do with? I'm sure we all do. One problem that I run into, as probably you do as well, is that if I have a long trip coming up and I want to bring my music and movies with me, I have to bring my MP3 player for music, and my DVD player so that I can watch videos and movies. It's a hassle carrying around two devices, plus all the DVD discs. The problem is amplified when I wish to bring more music than my MP3 player can hold, so I have to load the additional music on my laptop and bring that along for the ride. So now I'm stuck lugging around three devices. What a pain!

How much can your pocket hold? That's up to you and the iPod product you choose, but no matter how you organize it, the iPod classic holds loads of songs and plenty of hours of video. Now that you can buy movies from the iTunes Store and sync them to your Apple MP3 Player, the whole world is your theater. With the new 80Gb or 160 GB models, those movies fit comfortably next to TV shows, new games, podcasts, audiobooks, photo albums, and, of course, an entire library of music--up to 40,000 songs. It plays audio for hours and hours, or if you'd rather watch, you can feast your eyes on movies and TV shows for several hours without draining your battery.
