Then, in September 2007, we had a plethora of new iPods to choose from. The iPod touch became the 'true' video iPod the world had been sweatily dreaming about. It brought the best mobile browsing experience to palms everywhere, offering the iPhone-like iPod experience many people had been holding out for, and eventually got 32GB of memory.

Its partner in crime, the iPod classic, was also introduced in September. It was essentially a revamped, tripped-out fifth-gen iPod with more go-faster stripes than we care to count, and up to 160GB of storage.

A third-gen nano with "a little video for everyone" was also introduced, complete with a fat form factor to make the chunkiest of us feel slightly better about ourselves.

Spy-shot photographs of this nano leaked before the official announcement was made, leading the blogosphere to worry in advance that the nano was to become all dumpy. No-one seemed that bothered once it was released though. A pink 8GB model was released in the following January.

Finally, a new shuffle came out... well, it had new colours. (And a small 's' to match its lower-case siblings, spelling fans.)
