THE EARLY CHAPTERS IN THIS BOOK WERE ALL ABOUT SHOWING you how your iPod works and how you can fill it up with music, movies, photos, eBooks, and more. But if you think that’s all the iPod can do, think again. For instance, that gorgeous color screen on the Touch is happy to display your address book and calendar. The Classic can list your contacts and show you your schedule.

And that’s just for starters. If you’re looking for a handsome timepiece, your iPod can function as a world clock when you’re on the road, and as a stopwatch when you’re on the track. The Nano can even automatically count your steps, track your workouts, and mark your progress—and when you’re done exercising, you can unclip it from your running clothes and snap it into an optional watchband.
