Apple unveils new iPod Touch, Shuffle and Nano

By Greg Mombert September 1, 2010

Apple revealed its updated line of iPods today, which includes reworked versions of all but the iPod Classic model. The iPod Touch now features many of the same elements of the iPhone 4, including the Retina display, FaceTime, 720p video recording, and the powerful A4 processor. The Nano, meanwhile, took a bigger leap forward by adding a 1.5-inch multi-touch display to a redesigned body that’s even smaller than the last generation. The Shuffle took a different approach than the Touch or Nano by reverting back to a design similar to the square second generation, which featured buttons. Apple must have received some complaints about the last-generation Shuffle, which was stripped of buttons and forced users to use the headphone remote to control the device.

Everything Apple says is wrong about the DOJ’s iPhone lawsuit

The antitrust season is in full swing in 2024. This time around, Apple is in the cross-hairs of regulators, bringing back memories of the historic Microsoft antitrust case that unfolded over two decades ago. Back then, the focus was on Windows and web browsers. In Apple’s case, the iPhone is the centerpiece, with a wide ecosystem woven around it.

Experts say the case against Apple, which dives deep into monopolistic conduct, is surprisingly strong. The Department of Justice, in its lawsuit, has targeted everything from the iMessage “green bubble” mess and Apple Watch incompatibility situation to the locked app ecosystem and objectionable practices that Apple has put in place to maintain its alleged monopoly.
