Apple updated the entire iPod line on Sept. 9, offering more capacity and features than ever before on the iPod nano and iPod touch. Apple recognizes the 3G iPod touch as a "pocket computer", and the 32 GB and 64 GB modelshave a faster CPU and includes OpenGL support (like Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard"). Capacities now range from 8 GB to 64 GB, although there is no longer a 16 GB model. The 8 GB model is virtually unchanged from the previous generation. Surprisingly absent, especially in light of the video camera built into the 5G iPod nano, is any sort of camera.
The iPod touch can be upgraded to iPhone OS 3.1 for $9.95 through the iTunes Store. The original iPod touch will then match most of the capabilities of the 2G model.
For our overview of the current iPod lineup, see The 2009 iPod Value Equation.

The iPod touch (often called the iTouch) brings most of the iPhone's functionality to the iPod line, and you don't lose much beyond the phone and camera. The iPod touch even looks a lot like the iPhone.
Because of the breadth of the iPod line, we have four iPod price trackers: one for classic iPods, one for the iPod touch, one for the nano, and one for the shuffle.
iPods aren't just for music, photos, and video; they're also a great way to backup and transport files between computers.
Multiple vendors are listed when within one dollar of lowest price.
