Hold Everything
Decisions, decisions. Who needs ’em? Why
should you have to choose what to put on your iPod? With up to 160GB of
storage, iPod classic lets you carry everything in your collection — up
to 40,000 songs or up to 200 hours of video — everywhere you go. In a
completely new, even thinner, all-metal design, this iPod is a modern
classic.
OverviewWith 80GB or 160GB of storage(
1), iPod classic gives your music and video room to move. It also has plenty of energy (up to 40 hours of audio playback
2),
good looks (a sleek, all-metal design), and a great personality (a
brand-new interface with Cover Flow). In other words, iPod classic
makes an ideal companion. Why not get to know it better?
Cover FlowIf a picture says a thousand words, think of
what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on
iPod classic, you can flip through your music to find the album you
want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then
select an album to flip it over and see the track list.
MusicUse the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs,
browse in Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist,
album, song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click
Shuffle Songs. iPod classic makes your music look as good as it sounds,
thanks to its big, bright, colour display.
MoviesBuy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync
them to your iPod classic to watch anywhere, anytime. The gorgeous
2.5-inch display makes your movies pop. And iPod classic keeps you
entertained for up to 7 hours. Long flight or darkened room? Adjust the
brightness for even more video playback time.
TV ShowsThere’s always something good
on iPod classic. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows
on the iTunes Store then sync them to iPod classic. Watch last night’s
episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a pocket-size
marathon.
PodcastsThe iTunes Store features thousands of free video
and audio podcasts, including indie favorites and offerings from such
big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more.
Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod classic.
You can even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple
component or composite AV cable.
AudiobooksThe digital shelves of the iTunes Store are
stocked with thousands of audiobooks — including exclusives like the
entire Harry Potter series — so you can catch up on your reading
wherever iPod classic takes you. iPod classic recognizes where you left
off and bookmarks your place. You can even adjust the reading speed to
suit you.
GamesPut hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod classic
comes with three games — Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike — and you can
download more from the iTunes. All iPod games are designed specifically
for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2.5-inch
colour display.
PhotosiPod classic holds up to 25,000 photos you can sync
from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through
photo thumbnails the same way you scroll through song titles. To see a
photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view photo
slideshows — complete with music and transitions — on iPod classic or
on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.
SearchWith up to 40,000 songs1 on your iPod classic, you
need an easy way to search your collection. A built-in search function
lets you use the Click Wheel to type out the name of the song, artist,
album, audiobook, or podcast you’re looking for. iPod classic returns
results instantly as you select letters.
ExtrasCalendars, contacts, and a clock appear in the
Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the screen lock,
for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose a four-digit combination
and protect your iPod classic from prying eyes. If you forget your
combination, just reset when you sync. Or use the built-in stopwatch to
log your best times.
