Apple has announced a new range of iPods — including a Nano model that has a touch screen and no buttons.

Like previous versions, the Nano has a built-in FM tuner and can display photos, but instead of buttons, controls for playing, pausing and selecting music are on the screen.

In an update to the iPod Touch, Apple is adding video-chat features similar to the newest iPhone.

It has a front-facing camera for conducting video chats with other iPod Touch and iPhone users over Wi-Fi using Apple's FaceTime programme.

A camera on the back can be used for taking snapshots and recording video. Apple chief executive Steve Jobs also introduced a new iPod Shuffle, the lowest-end music player in Apple's range.

Like the past generation, it can speak the names of playlists and songs, but it brings back the square shape and buttons of Apple's earlier Shuffle.

World must open its eyes and see Israel for what it is

Why pick on Israel when there's so much injustice in the rest of the world? The answer is to be found in the specific circumstances which gave rise to the launch of the BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) campaign in July 2005.

PR machine is driving Sinn Fein power push

Sinn Fein's ard fheis opens in Killarney tomorrow. Like most conferences held by successful political parties, it is a well-managed set-piece. It is a PR event and it is aimed at the voters watching on TV.

Why bringing up our kids should be child's play... or maybe it's not

Nurse, the screens! Yup, top experts have issued new warnings about kiddies watching nothing but tellies and computers, while real life flits by unnoticed outside.
