Apple pulls a Coke with iPod Classic

Apple didn't just unleash their hot new iPod Touch today. Oh no, they also dropped an updated version of the iPod Nano. Just like the rumor mill predicted, it's a fat little guy, shorter and squatter than the last version. It's been beefed up to play video now, with a 2-inch, 320 x 240-pixel screen that'll play your vids just as well as the last-generation iPod videos.

It's got an updated interface, too, which includes Cover Flow, the same scrolling menus included on the iPhone. The new Nano will be available in a variety of colors, including a (red) one for that charity doohickey they've got going. The super-thin little guys will come in both 4-GB and 8-GB varieties, setting you back $150 and $200, respectively
