3. Apple iPod Nano

The first things you'll notice about the third-generation Apple iPod Nano are its video-capable 2-inch display and its revised shape. The brushed-aluminum device--available in silver (4GB and 8GB), black, red, turquoise, mint green, and pink--is well designed for one-handed operation. The LED-backlit display is bright and beautiful, making photos and videos look crisp and brilliant. The larger screen also accommodates Apple's refreshed iPod interface, which introduced right-side content previews and Cover Flow visual album-cover navigation. Unfortunately, you'll have to pay extra for a built-in microphone or an FM tuner. Apple rates the Nano's battery life at 24 hours for audio and 5 hours for video.
