Following up on the iOS 4.1 announcement, Apple unveiled three new iPod models to refresh their music player lineup. The iPod Shuffle will go back to its familiar matchbook-like form, complete with buttons and clip, and will hold 2 GB of music; the new Shuffle will be available in five different colors and retail for $49. As reported across the internet, the new iPod Nano will be a small, multitouch, square device, have a clip — like the Shuffle — and will be sold in seven different colors; including a Product(RED) version. It will be available in an 8 GB model for $149 and a 16 GB model for $179.

And of course, the iPod Touch was not left out of the upgrade festival. Apple’s CEO Steve Jobs touted that the iPod Touch is the most popular portable gaming device in the world; outselling Sony and Nintendo combined. The new device is thinner, lighter, has Apple’s Retina display, 1 GHz A4 processor, front facing camera with FaceTime support, rear-facing camera with 720p HD recording, iOS 4.1 support, and 3-axis gyroscope. The iPod Touch will retail for: 8GB $229, 32 GB $299, 64 GB $399.

All the new iPod models will be available for pre-order today and will begin shipping next week.

Some other highlights from the event:

Apple has sold more than 275 Million iPods Worldwide!!

Steve Jobs just told an audience that the iPod touch alone outsells Nintendo’s DS and Sony’s PlayStation Portable combined, worldwide. How many games iPod touch users actually play and for how long wasn’t discussed, but Jobs said 1.5 billion “games and entertainment” apps have been downloaded — again, on the iPod touch alone, never mind all those iPhones. It is now the #1 selling hand held gaming device! (I actually agree based on the content and games I am able to play with on my iPhone).

Apple has pass the 11.5 Billion mark for iTunes downloads since launch…That is a whole lot of songs!!

Was checking out some photos online and this guy takes some pretty rad pictures. Everything about this shot is ill. Check out his flickr.

This is our intern working late into the wee hours of the night!

haha we wish!

One day, maybe, we’ll be on a gravy train with biscuit wheels. Till then, enjoy the last day of the grind.  Peace!

For a limited time, we will have ‘Vietnam the World Tour’ shirts for grabs in our webstore. These shirts were custom made for our Singapore Tour. These shirts are made from light weight 100% cotton with an athletic fit.

Only 15 bucks! Get yours while it’s still in stock.

Really no surprises here folks. This event will be all about the new iPods. The one we’ve been hearing about is the iPod Touch 4 with a front and rear camera, that will be able to make Facetime calls. Details are usually kept pretty tight lipped just as all previous events Apple holds. Who knows maybe ol’ Steve will give us an insight on when the iPhone will actually be available on multiple carriers. One can dream right?

Happy Hump Day!

Here are some photos of DeeJay Source spinning over at the Summer Nights event thrown by KCRW courtesy of himself. He was workin’ mad hard as he had to represent at two different spots. I wish you all could have made it out to the Flyball event over at the Grandstar. Source straight murdered it. More updates on when you can catch him after the jump. Peace.
