The line between music and movies and how we watch them gets blurrier today with the launch of the iPod Touch<\/a> – which is the new widescreen iPod<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"iPod<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0Engadget have all the latest details<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Well, what do you know. Turns out the iPod Touch is a reality after all. While we initially assumed that Mr. Jobs wouldn’t be so kind as to bless us all with two<\/em> new full-fledged iPods<\/a> in a single day, we’re elated that he had other ideas.<\/p>\n

The new flagship iPod<\/a> has “the same size screen as the iPhone<\/a>, but it’s even thinner” (eight-millimeters, for those taking notes), and it also touts the “same multi-touch interface” found on the the firm’s handset. Additionally, it boasts a 3.5-inch widescreen display, the ability to “flick through your photos,” and you even get the “slide to unlock” feature, too.<\/p>\n

And yes, this thing actually has WiFi. Of note, the built-in wireless antenna (shown after the jump along with a few other pics) isn’t exactly attractive, but if it means that we can surf the web on our iPod, we suppose it may be an acceptable flaw.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It is amazing to conisder what this device has done for Apple since the low key beginnings in 2001<\/a>. iTunes<\/a> and the iPod<\/a> have reshaped the music industry and are making major headways into TV and the movies (despite the dumb move by NBC<\/a> last week).<\/p>\n

Films will still be watched primarily on a cinema screen and on TVs for a good few years to come but Steve Jobs<\/a> and his Cupertino cohorts<\/a> will continue to\u00a0have a profound affect on how we buy and watch entertaiment if they keep up this level of innovation.<\/p>\n
