With the new iPod Touch taking top spot in the iPod roster, the venerable original is starting to look dated. But Apple is definitely not discontinuing the bestselling music player — especially since it's the only one in the lineup that still uses a hard drive. That hard drive is getting an big upgrade in the new version, now called the iPod Classic.

The Classic comes in two sizes: the "regular" 80-GB iPod ($250) and the biggie-size 160-GB model ($350). That's a big hard drive. Like, 40,000 songs big. The 160-gig Classic is rated to last 40 hours of music playback (7 hours video). Otherwise, it's pretty much the same as the previous generation, with upgraded menus and all-metal, slightly thinner form factor. No complaints here. — Peter Pachal
