Apple Rolls Out New iPods

As expected, Apple pulled the covers off changes to its iPod lineup today. They weren't exactly what we thought, but at least a few of the rumors were correct.

Here's the lowdown:

• The iPod Mini will come in 4GB and 6GB flavors (this was expected) at $199 and $249
• The iPod Mini did not get a color LCD (it was thought that it would)
• The 40GB iPod has been dropped (expected), but the 20GB is still available at $299 (unexpected)
• Photo iPods will now come in 30GB and 60GB models at $349 and $449 (expected)
• The gold iPod Mini color choice has been dropped (expected)
• iPod Mini battery life is reported to be 18 hours now
