歴史的背景
The iPod (Dock Connector) updated both the look-and-feel and the feature set of the existing iPod. The iPod (Dock Connector) was thinner and lighter than the original iPod, and it introduced several new hardware features. The FireWire port was replaced by a "dock connector" which allowed the iPod to connect to either a Mac or PC, using either FireWire or USB 2.0. The iPod (Dock Connector) had smoother angles than its predecessor, and moved the four buttons which had previously been arrayed around the scroll wheel to the top of the front face. These new buttons were backlit and solid state. Apple also added a variety of software feature enhancements to the new iPods, enhancements which were not made available on the older models.
