Apple’s iPod was originally released in 2001 as an MP3 player that allowed you to carry “1,000 songs in your pocket” and has since evolved into a personal media center with many features. As of 2011, four iPod models are available: iPod classic, iPod touch, iPod nano and iPod shuffle. All iPod models, with the exception of the Shuffle, now play videos on top of music and the iPod touch even features mobile applications like the iPhone. The iPod has many uses, including personal stereo or disc jockey, video player and portable media center. Writer Bio
