What kind of iPod do I have?
Apple’s naming conventions are simple, however the product matrix that they describe is continuing to get more and
more complex. The iPod is the perfect example of this. All of the
devices shown at the right are known as iPods (with some slight modifications).
More and more people are joining the iPod wagon, and it is safe to assume that most of them aren’t as tech savvy as
you are, dear reader. How is the normal iPod toting dude (or dudette) supposed to know if they have a 2 gen or a 3rd
gen? Do they have a click wheel vs. a scroll wheel?
Worry no more, iPod lovers! Apple has an article about
Identifying different iPod models. Check it out,
you’ll thank me later.

It's funny... When I have my shuffle in public and someone asks me "What's that?" (about 20 times a day) I just say "It's my iPod." and leave it at that. I never even refer to it as a shuffle to people who don't know the difference... It's just easier that way. But to people 'in the know' I refer to it as my shuffle and leave the iPod off.
