iTunes 10, New iPod Nano Announced At Apple Conference

The NEW iTunes 10 and the iPod Nano were announced at the Apple Conference.  The annual September address of the press brought a lot of anticipation. Although many were hoping for new news on the White iPhone 4 and Verizon iPhone rumors, that didn’t transpire.

However, there are LOTS of exciting things to share.

First, the new iTunes 10 has received a facelift and some new features. Many think that the new iTunes 10 interface is a bit drab, but I have a feeling once we get used to the physical changes it will all look better to us.

In addition, iTunes 10 adds the “Ping” social network – which is sort of like Facebook for music on steroids.  Ping allows users to share music and see what each other are listening to. Celebrities can even join Ping and send out updates when their products are available for sale, plus provide a link for easy (impulse) purchases.

Furthermore, the new iPod Nano is exciting. It ditched the long, stick shape in favor of the smaller, squarish version. In addition, it features a multi-touch screen that has many people drooling. Adding in a built-in FM radio really takes this to the next level.

The iPod Nano sells for  $149 and $179 for 8 and 16 GB models and comes in a variety of colors. You can purchase them here.
