Apple has followed up on adding more storage for the high-end iPhone and iPod touch by also updating the small end of the iPod line.
The iPod shuffle with 1 GB is now $49 (down from $79) , and there's a new 2 GB model for $69.
This brings Apple's pricing closer to the range of competitive products from companies like Creative and SanDisk (though price really isn't the primary attraction of the iPod line...). -- See my Portable Media Players Gallery for details and comparisons.
