Apple has officially announced the launch of a new iPod this Christmas season. The next-generation iPod will support wireless music downloads and may even incorporate phone functionality.

The new version of the 50 million iPods currently in the market will have the capability to download music and videos via short-range Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. However, the potential for using Wi-Fi chips in this device is even greater. This means that users will no longer need to use a computer to download music but can select and download directly from the iPod. Furthermore, you can fully utilize Bluetooth headphones with this device. However, to ensure an uninterrupted music experience, the device’s battery must be reliable.
Since the launch of the iPod video at the end of 2005, Apple has not released any new products. If the company’s engineers can overcome the battery challenges, it’s very likely that a new product will be available on the market by the end of this year.
Apple’s spokesperson declined to comment on this matter.
