Some of you may be aware that Apple held an iPod event yesterday in advance of the holiday season. There were a lot of new features rolled out, with implications for both iPod and iPhone owners and purchasers.

Sometimes the better part of valor is to simply step aside and let someone else do the talking. I cannot improve on the scope of Jeff Richardson’s comprehensive post on the new features and updates to the iPod, iPhone OS and iTunes software so I will simply point you to it here. Thanks Jeff for a great overview of what Apple has in store for its little mobile devices (until the next big announcement, anyway).
