The Apple iPod family album

We take a look at all of Apple's iPods past and present. It's sure been a journey since that chunky, black-and-white original.

Already got XP installed, but want to try Vista? Here's how to run both at once.

Pioneer AVIC-HD3

Pioneer, late to the Aussie GPS market, is hoping to make a splash in the top end of the market with the AVIC-HD3 -- an integrated double-DIN, GPS, music, video and communications unit.
Archos 604 (30GB)

The do-it-all Archos 604 with its improved design is slightly marred by mediocre audio performance. It's an amazing PVP, but not a great audio player.
Toshiba gigabeat X30 (30GB)

Slightly smaller and thinner than the original, the new Toshiba gigabeat X30 gives the overall effect being of a much sleeker unit than its predecessor.
Sony NW-A3000S Walkman (20GB)

Sony won us over with its latest MP3 entry, the 6GB NW-A1000 Walkman, and with the exact same design and features set, the 20GB NW-A3000S Walkman looks set to do the same.
Samsung YH-J70

While Apple went out for minimal features in order to keep its iPods looking zen (no offence, Creative), Samsung, like most Korean companies, prefers to play it by the numbers (of features).
Archos AV500 Mobile DVR (30GB)

If we could choose only one PVP, it'd be the Archos AV500 Mobile DVR.
JVC Everio GZ-MG20

Though the short battery life and mediocre image quality are frustrating, the JVC Everio GZ-MG20's amazing recording capacity and tiny size still make it an enticing device.
Apple iPod (60GB, video)

Get the affordable, sleek, and sexy 5G Apple iPod for its audio virtues. Although video looks great, poor video battery life and a relatively small screen hamper its appeal to video heads

Apple iPod killers 2005

We know what you're thinking: Why mention the iPod in the same breath as digital audio players from Archos, and Creative when the iPod doesn't even play the WMA format?
MP3 players with large screens

MP3 players with monster screens. Watch movies! View photos! Scare the dickens out of the iPod Shuffle with these big-screen players.

Internode tackles light heavy users

Internode has launched a new broadband plan -- despite earlier comments by an exec that the ISP had too many choices already.
Apple debuts new U2 iPod

Apple Computer on Tuesday released a new version of its U2 Special Edition iPod music player, with a 30GB storage capacity and 14-hour battery life for AU$499.
