Apple Computer has made colour displays a standard on all its white iPod digital music players.
The simplified iPod lineup features a 20-gigabyte model that holds up to 5,000 songs, priced at $2,400, and a 60GB model that carries up to 15,000 songs, priced at $3,200.
The black iPod U2 Special Edition now also comes with a colour screen and is priced at $2,600. The colour displays allow iPod users to view album artwork, photos, calendars, contacts and games.
Both the 20GB and 60GB iPod models feature the ability to import photos from a digital camera with the optional iPod Camera Connector. This lets users combine their favourite music and photos to create slide shows for viewing right on their iPod, or on a big-screen. All iPods now offer an easy to use menu for MP3-based blogs known as 'podcasts', including the ability to display podcast artwork.
