 "New iPod Touch and Nano add colour to Apple's charm")
Apple introduced not only the iPhone 5 last night but it also announced the new generation iPod Touch and iPod Nano. Here’s a quick look at the features of the new iPod devices.
iPod Touch: The iPod Touch 5th generation is now available in only two versions which are the 32 GB and 64 GB, so say goodbye to the 8 GB and 16 GB versions. The new device is also available in five colours now. In addition to Black and White, we have Blue, Yellow and Pink too. It has an anodized aluminum body, the same as a MacBook Air.
As with the new iPhone, the iPod Touch has also become thinner at just 6.1 mm. The previous version was 7.2 mm thick. The screen is also bigger with a 4-inch Display, and a resolution of 1136x640 pixels at 326 pixels per inch.
The new device comes packed with the Dual-Core A5 Chip, the same as an iPhone 4S. This will ensure that even graphic intensive games won’t have any lag.

Apple has also upgraded the front camera, which is mainly used to FaceTime, to 1.2 megapixels. The video for this is also in HD, at 720 pixels and up to 30 frames per second.
Siri is finally available on the new iPod Touch. The new device will ship with iOS 6 as well. For key features of iOS6 click here.
