kestrellOver the past couple of years, Apple has released a variety of devices that are both portable and accessible. This is great, but it can be confusing as well. Anna Dresner will try to dispel any confusion you may have regarding the major differences and basic functions of these devices. She'll work through the iPod Shuffle and Nano, the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad, describing their sizes, prices, and basic functions. This should help you decide which device to buy or make the most of any of these devices that you already have.
