Everything you love about iPod just got tinier. iPod mini ? available on Mac and Windows ? lets you bring along enough music for a three-day weekend getaway in a package so small you?ll forget you?re carrying it. Until people ask you about it.
Fashionably Compact
Apple engineers squeezed all the best features of iPod into a case weighing just 3.6 ounces and smaller than most cell phones(1). iPod mini features an anodized aluminium case that resists stains and scratches. The case weighs practically nothing, but protects iPod mini in your pocket, purse or backpack. Recessed in the case to keep its surface pristine wherever you lay it, the 1.67 inch (diagonal) backlit screen displays full song names and more. iPod mini lasts up to 8 hours on a single battery charge and like its (slightly) bigger brothers, iPod mini gives you up to 25 minutes of skip protection.
