What has Apple done with the iPod in "five generations"? The result is the iPod 5G or, unofficially, the iPod video.

The iPod video was released on October 12, 2005, just after the iPod nano was released. The iPod video proved not to be as good as it could be and was updated on September 12, 2006. The changes done to the iPod were: a search feature, brighter screen, newly designed earphones, and a gap less playback. In addition to those features games were added and the battery life became longer when playing videos. Those features were later available for the original iPod video as a firmware update. The last change is the 60GB iPod video was replaced by a bigger 80 GB iPod video, still having the same dimensions as the old version.

All iPods in the past were only able to play music, this was changed with the new iPod. The iPod video can now store and play video files and also allows the users to view photos.

This new iPod was launched in two storage capacities but a third was added. The original launch storage capacity was 30 GB and 60 GB. The 60 GB capacity was discontinued on September 12, 2006 and was replaced by the 80 GB.

The major addition to this iPod was the video capability. The iPod video plays videos in MP4. The iPod can play videos such as: TV shows, music videos, movies, and podcasts. You are able to purchase the videos at Apple's online store, iTunes Store, or you can just download the videos from Google Earth or other sources and import to the iPod through the iTunes software.

If you want to view the videos or slide shows on a device other than the iPod that is possible. You may play the videos or slide shows out of the iPod video into a television set, monitor, or projector by using the Apple iPod AV cable or an iPod dock using an S-Video cable.

Many consumers have complained of this product having a small screen size, poor battery life when playing videos, fixed in the September 12, 2006 update, and the tendency of the device to scratch very easily.

If you are interested in buying the Apple iPod video here are its dimensions and other important facts:

-The dimensions of the 30 GB iPod are 4.07 x 2.43 x .43 in
-The dimensions of the 60 and 80 GB iPod are 4.07 x 2.43 x .55 in
-The display is 320 x 240 and 2.5" diagonal

In "five generations" the iPod has come a long way and, as the iPod video shows, Apple is still improving and creating more iPods all the time.
