IPod Photo - Specifications

Specifications

The iPod Photo supported JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, and PNG graphic file formats, and could be attached to a television or other external display for slideshows. Apple's advertised battery life for continuous music playback was fifteen hours, or five hours for a continuous slideshow with music.

The iPod Photo was originally available in 40 GB and 60 GB models, which cost US$499 and US$599 respectively. On February 23, 2005, Apple discontinued the 1.9 cm-thick 40 GB model and introduced a lower-priced (US$349) and slimmer (1.6 cm) 30 GB iPod Photo. Additionally, it dropped the price of the 60 GB model (which had always been 1.9 cm thick) to US$449. However, the iPod dock and the FireWire and television video cables were sold separately.

On February 23, 2005, Apple announced the iPod Camera Connector which promised users of iPod Photo instant transfer of images from a USB-compatible digital camera to the iPod Photo. The main difference between this and Belkin's Digital Camera Link is that Apple's unit supports instant image viewing on the iPod Photo after transfer without having to connect the iPod Photo to a computer first.
