Posted by Sandy

new iMac G5 with Front Row media softwareThe pink Madonna iPod was a no-show, thank goodness, but there were several pleasant surprises at today's Apple media event, including new iPods with video and a new iMac with built-in media center software.

Updated iPod, available in black and white, adds larger screen and support for video content. iTunes store has 2,000 music videos at launch, plus Pixar short films, and -- for the U.S. market only -- TV programs from Disney and ABC.

Updated iMac G5 has built-in digital camera, new Front Row software for quick access to music, video, movie trailers, etc., The new Apple Remote lets you control Front Row from the couch. Apple Remote combined with new Universal Dock accessory gives you remote control of your iPod.

There are also new versions of iTunes and QuickTime.

Did I miss anything?
