The Memory size is engraved on the back, and uses a USB 2 for syncing/downloading music. Comes in White or Black

Introduced in 2007 the iPod Classic is a classic touch on the traditional ipod Video. Although thinner the Classic has all the same compatibility as the older versions, except the signature white material is replaced with silver (the back of the player). Two versions were made 80GB and 160GB
iPod Touch
A Completely new Ipod emerges with the iPod Touch. Scroll/click wheels have been dismissed and are now replaced with a complete touch screen. Although resembling closely to the iPhone, the iPod Touch has a long screen and is controlled solely threw the touch of a finger. It also comes with a web browser (optional). The available size when released was: 8GB and 16GB and it only came in Black.
The Nano Nano 1st Generation Nano 2nd Generation
How do you tell the difference between the 1st generation and the 2nd generation Nano? For one thing the 2nd generation of Nano is smaller then the 1st, and also comes in 5 elaborate colors. Like the 1st one you can find the dock connector and the earphone jack at the bottom of the Nano, but unlike the 1st Nano the 2nd generation comes in 3 different Memory sizes: 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB. The 1st Generation Nano only comes in 1GB. You can find the memory size on the 2nd generation Nano engraved on the back. Both use a USB 2 cable to sync and download music, both come with color screens and photo compatibility.
The Mini Mini 1st Generation Mini 2nd Generation The iPod Mini also has two models, the 1st generation and the 2nd generation. The 2nd can easily be determined from the 1st by the hard drive size engraved on the back, and the click wheel text matching the mini’s color (unlike the 1st which was only silver). The 1st generation only came with 4GB’s, while the 2nd came with 4GB and 6GB capacity. Both generations are the same size and can fit into the same cases, and use a USB 2 to sync/download music.
