Overview
In addition to being a digital audio player, like other iPods, the iPod Photo allowed users to store and display color photographs. On June 28, 2005, the iPod Photo line was merged with the existing iPod line, giving all full-size iPods the same features and color screen as iPod Photo; the iPod Photo line then ceased to exist under that name.
iPod Photo's design was nearly identical to the fourth-generation iPod, storing media on a hard drive and synchronizing with the user's computer over FireWire or USB 2.0. However, unlike earlier models which had monochrome displays, its 220x176-pixel LCD was capable of displaying up to 65,536 colors.
iTunes was used to synchronize music and photos from the computer. Photos were displayable either on the built-in display, or on a TV with an additional TV cable. Using iTunes 4.7, users could sync photos from a folder, or Apple's iPhoto on the Macintosh, or Adobe Photoshop Album 2.0 or Photoshop Elements 3.0 on Windows.
