By now, you may have heard about the new iPod nano that came out to day - it has a capacity of 1GB and retails for $149. Yes, it holds 240 songs, but that’s not the selling point for a genealogist - the selling point is that this one holds up to 15,000 photos (and it can display them on the built-in color display - not a big deal, or on a TV screen, which is a big deal). It pulls the photos through iTunes/iPhoto (and it can provide a musical soundtrack to any photo slideshows you may put on).
