But Apple's design prowess reaches beyond the ranks of clones. The iPod and iPhone have also influenced--in more general ways--the designs of Apple's gadget-making competitors around the world.

The player supports video playback in MPEG4, SVI, and WMV9 file formats and audio playback in MP3, WMA, and subscription WMA file formats.
