At Macworld Expo, Apple announced that 2 million iPods had been sold.

On February 20, the aluminum-encased iPod mini went on sale. The diminutive iPod used an even smaller hard drive than the regular iPod and stored 4 GB of data. It also introduced a new click wheel, which elimintated the need for four separate buttons in addition to the scroll wheel.

Apple was unable to keep up with demand for the mini for months on end.

The 4th generation iPod was introduced on July 19. It also incorporated a click wheel and added a new feature: shuffle.

On October 26, Apple rolled out the iPod photo, an iPod with a color display, a video cable so it could be connected to a television, and the ability to work with iPhoto to manage, resize, and download your digital photos.

The U2 special edition iPod was introduced at the same time, a black iPod with a red click wheel.

iMac G5 Showing how the iPod now dominated Apple culture, the was introduced as bing "from the creators of iPod".
