New Apple iPods

I am right now at home in front of the live blog at Gizmodo.com and going absolutely bananas over the Apple Keynote that Steve Jobs is presenting right now. There is basically a new version of the nano and the Touch that is being released today and both players have much welcomed features. Of the top of my head I can say that the new nano has an elongated vertical screen as well as a new curved shaping that is inspired by the MacBook Air, and the new iPhone 3G-like Touch has speakers as well as built-in Nike Sport Kit software.

Nike Sport Kit software for the iPod Touch, what an amazing (but long overdue) concept to finally see the light of day!! I was initially thrown off and disappointed when AppleInsider.com released an article stating that previous speculations of Nike software for the Touch or iPhone were completely without merit. Any supposed photos of this rumor were said to be nothing more than computer generated lies, and I was then left to settle for a nano on my daily runs. But recently I have found a way to solve this dilemma by taking my Touch with me while still keeping my nano secure in my shorts pocket to track my workout information. If my 32GB Touch can at least be able to upload the Nike Sport Kit software, that means my nano can then be taken out of the equation altogether!! I am hopeful that this is possible, otherwise I will be definitely feel like a jackass for having spent $500 for such a device rendered obsolete in a short amount of time.

What makes this situation so different is that so far I am not really inspired to go out and buy one of these new gadgets. I am happy with my Touch, my 80GB Classic and even my nano...it's the Nike Sport Kit software that I want!!
