The
configuration of the buttons is different
here, too. They appear in a row in the
middle of the iPod between the LCD
and the scroll pad, and they light up
(see Figure 1-6).

The third-generation iPod is the first to have a docking port on the bottom
(see Figure 1-7). This port enables you to connect the iPod to a docking station
for charging or for hooking up to a sound system.
The LCD of the third-generation iPod is in monochrome, but it is backlit, which
makes the display easier to read in the dark or under bright light.
This iPod is also FireWire-based, and you need
to charge its battery through a FireWire cable,
but you can sync (as in synchronize) the iPod
to a computer through Universal Serial Bus
(USB).
