The term iPod today has become synonymous with almost any music lover world wide and the appearance of iPods has been a boon to patrons of music as these are portable music players designed by Apple and were introduced for the first time in 2001. Since then, there have been various models of the iPods which have been released and each having separate functions of their own, but it can be concluded without a trace of doubt that these iPods have been super successful in attracting the consumers. The various iPod models used at present include the iPod classic, the iPod nano which enabled video viewing, the iPod touch which is somewhat similar to iPhones, the iPod shuffle which does not have a screen and the iPod photo. These are all digital music players having adequate storage capacity which varies according to each model. The iPod classic models contain and save these storage data in an internal hard drive while the other models implement the usage of flash memory. Recent statistics suggest that the iPod has sold about 110 million units world wide giving it the numero uno position as the most sold digital music player in history.
Unlike earlier when iPods worked only with Macs, nowadays, they can function even in Windows versions and they can play various audio file formats like WAP, AIFF, MP3, Audible audiobook etc. The iPod nano can play Quick Time video formats and MPEG 4 files with suitable limitations while the iPod photo allows the viewing of PNG, JPEG, TIFF, GIF files. It is possible to transfer the files to the storage compartment of the iPods. The Fire Wire and USB wall chargers accompany the iPods which are used to charge the iPods without the computer. All iPods are necessarily supplied with earphones apart from other accessories.
One disadvantage of the iPods has been their low battery life along with weaker equalizer settings and inferior bass quality.

PowerBooks
Upon its invention, computers were touted as the next big thing to hit the world of technological innovations and personal computers had been since then considered one of the most marvelous inventions of the times. However, personal computers today have been pushed to the back by another improved version, most commonly referred to as the laptop. Macintosh or Mac is the premium brand name by which Apple’s range of personal computers is known and PowerBooks refer to the laptop versions of these Mac computers. With the coming of the MacBooks however, the PowerBooks were retracted from service in 2006. But it should be admitted without any note of disbelief that PowerBooks were extremely efficient and won a series of awards for their proficiency. Some of these awards include Endgadget’s ‘Laptop of the Year’ in 2005 and ‘Gold’ status in the 2001 Industrial Excellency Awards.
The first series of PowerBooks introduced were three in number PowerBook 100, PowerBook 140 and PowerBook 170 and they were immensely successful to the extent that it is estimated that it took hold of a share of a whopping amount of 40% of the total laptop sales. In fact PowerBook 100 had been ranked by Mobile PC as the ‘#1 gadget of all time.’ The PowerBook 500 series was also referred to as ‘Blackbird’ and it was the first laptop to allow built-in Ethernet networking and the first computer ever to use a trackpad. However, the PowerBook 5300 which was highly anticipated turned out to be a major failure and Apple introduced new PowerBook 1400 to make up for its debacle. These were the first PowerBooks to possess an internal CD drive. The PowerBook G3 was launched in 1998 and climbed popularity charts and its versions like the ‘Lombard’ and the ‘Pismo’ were provided with newer innovations like AGP graphics and the use of AirPort wireless networking.
However, it was in 2006 that this series was terminated and was replaced by the MacBook versions.
