Bringing amazing, simple usage to the cluttered electronic world, Apple has made a huge design statement with the simplicity of the iPod. It is the first MP3 player to hold 1,000 songs, five gigabytes of data, have an eight-hour battery life and only weigh 6.5 ounces. Connected to a Macintosh by a FireWire cable, the iPod can download a CD within 10 seconds and the battery charges while hooked to the computer.
