New ipod
Apple has unveiled a minuscule new iPod Shuffle that is half the size of existing model and which employs a new voice feature.
The third-generation Shuffle, a slim aluminium rectangle less than 5cm long, takes up about half as much space as the previous version even as it doubles music storage space to 4 gigabytes.
To achieve such a tiny form, Apple had to remove all of the buttons - except for one on/off switch - from the body of the $129 device and build them into the headphone cord instead.
"Smaller has tended to work very well for us," said Greg Joswiak, a marketing vice president at Apple.
The trade-off for the new Shuffle always has been the lack of a screen to visually navigate through the music stored on the device. The first-generation Shuffle, which launched in 2005, could hold about 240 songs, arguably not enough to warrant a screen.
Now that the device can carry 1000 songs, Apple has come up with a way for people to identify the music they're listening to or find songs they want.
A new feature called VoiceOver can, at the push of a button, speak the song and artist name or rattle off the list of custom mixes — called playlists — that the owner has loaded onto the device.
New ipad mini
Apple has told Pocket-lint that it considered a number of different sizes for the iPad mini before settling on the 7.9-inch display that it comes with.
While Phil Schiller, Apple's senior vice-president of worldwide marketing, said jokingly on stage that the size was chosen to enable people to remember that the company sold a 9.7-inch iPad and a 7.9-inch iPad, the real reason is that the new size is actually the best for this smaller form factor.
The Apple iPad mini has gone on sale today around the world, with the company hoping it can emulate the success of the original iPads with a smaller version to take on the Google Nexus 7, among others.
Rather than opt for a 7-inch tablet though, Apple has gone for a slightly bigger 4:3 ratio screen that measures 7.9-inches. It believes the extra real estate will benefit users hoping to enjoy iPad apps on a smaller screen, while still being considerably bigger than a 7-inch or 4-inch device.
Apple has previously said that the 4:3 ratio is better suited for a tablet experience because people not only use it with two hands, but also constantly switch orientation from landscape to portrait. In contrast, the iPhone 5's 16:10 ratio screen is designed to be used with one hand and that has impacted on the screen size and shape.
Pocket-lint will be publishing a review of the iPad mini in the coming days, once we've had more time to test it fully.
