The iPod classic 4th Gen acquired a lot of features from the junior model iPod nano, including: the touch-sensitive scroll wheel with four auxiliary buttons under it; the energy-efficient components, enhancing the battery life for over 12 hours of music playback, while the battery remained as in the previous model. The iPod classic 4th Gen case became thinner of course, while the accessories to go by were cut back by the Apple for some editions.\u00a0 Initially, the two models were being offered: the 20 Gb model and the 40 Gb model, but later on October 26, 2004, the iPhoto was introduced as the iPod classic 4th Gen premium edition. The device featured a 220 x 176 pixel LCD capable of displaying up to 65,536 colors. It supported JPEG, BMP, GIF, TIFF, and PNG graphic file formats, and the users could attach their iPods to TV or other external display for slideshows via a bundled TV cable.<!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"toc_container\" class=\"no_bullets\"><p class=\"toc_title\">Contents<\/p><ul class=\"toc_list\"><li><a href=\"#iPod_Classic_4th_Generation_2004_U2_Special_Edition\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">1<\/span> iPod Classic 4th Generation (2004) U2 Special Edition<\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#Specifications\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_2\">1.1<\/span> Specifications<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"#Apple_Orders_Discontinuation\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">2<\/span> Apple Orders, Discontinuation<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Miscellanea\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">3<\/span> Miscellanea <\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Links\"><span class=\"toc_number toc_depth_1\">4<\/span> Links<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span id=\"iPod_Classic_4th_Generation_2004_U2_Special_Edition\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>iPod Classic 4th Generation (2004) U2 Special Edition<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Introduced on October, 2004.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><span id=\"Specifications\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\">Specifications<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Processor Speed:<\/em> 80 MHz (x2).<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Processor Type:<\/em> PP5020.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Onboard RAM:<\/em> 32 MB.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Storage capacity:<\/em> 20 GB (5000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format, 20000 photos) and 60 GB (15000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format, 25000 photos).<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Connectivity:<\/em> Firewire, USB (sync and charge), dock, headphones.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Mac support:<\/em> Mac 10.1.5.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>Audio:<\/em> A high output amplifier (60-mW), a standard 3.5-mm headphone jack.
