today shows about to get a little touchy I'm Bridget Carey and this is your cnet update the new ipod touch and ipod nano are now shipping the touch starts at three hundred dollars for 32 gigs of memory it has a larger screen and works with siri just like its iphone cousin and for the first time it comes in a few colors it's coated in tropical shades of pink yellow and blue as well as light grey slate and red for the product red foundation the Nano is one hundred fifty dollars and comes in even more colors adding green and purple to the rainbow and the evolve music player has a design that looks like a super shrunk down iphone with a center home button under the 2.5 inch touchscreen aside from the new ipods the hype just continues to grow around the next ipad mini a researcher at 9to5 mac posted photos on Twitter that appeared to be real photos of the back of the ipad mini showing the thin body and the smaller lightning port connector at the bottom now pricing will be interesting if the ipod touch starts at three hundred dollars you gotta wonder will this new ipad model also be around 300 maybe even a little more the competitive price point in the 7-inch category is two hundred dollars but Apple may not care to compete closely on price if there are high-end features while apple's tablet gets smaller google's tablet is getting larger i have here the google nexus 7 tablet but google is working on a 10 inch version of this according to an analyst at NPD DisplaySearch this would be a high-end device made by samsung facebook wants to be more like pinterest it just added a feature called collections or you can mark products you like into a wish list first a retail has to create something called the collection on their Facebook page only seven stores are doing this including Pottery Barn and victoria's secret users can collect those products posted to their wall and file it to a category I found it to be pretty buggy when I tried it out and I couldn't find all the items I collected in one place so on Facebook irons this out you'll probably see this at more retailers today's appt to watch is one that could be handy if you've been procrastinating on ordering prints of your digital photos it's called free prints right now it's only for Apple mobile devices but it'll be on Android by the end of the year what makes free prints interesting is that one menu it pulls in all the photos you have on your device as well as social networks like Facebook Flickr Instagram and Picasa just check off the images you want the sizes you want and get the glossies mailed to you it's called free prints but it's not completely free you still have to pay for shipping and it costs about the same as you would pay for an online service like snapfish that your tech news update for today but we got links to all these stories at the blog sina com / update from our studios in New York I'm Bridget Carey
