The idea of the iPod has an extremely exciting history. The idea was to design a small hard drive-based player, which should have differed from the bulkier flash based digital media players of the generation.
Originally the iPod was based on the idea of using hard drives (5GB Toshiba). The drives were approximately the size of a quarter. The operating system it used was known as Pixo. The unit also included a high-resolution display and a lithium polymer battery.
The first iPods had many innovative features- most notably the scroll wheel. The wheel was used to scroll through the list of songs and to control the menus. This creative feature made it easier to navigate through the play list.
Notably, a very serious weakness of the original iPod was lack of Windows compatibility. By 2002 the issue was addressed and a new Windows compatible version of the iPod was delivered. The new unit also included an upgraded 20GB of storage space. The scroll wheel was replaced by a touchpad-like wheel, surrounded by a ring of buttons. In 2003 all mechanical buttons were removed from the iPod. Storage ranged from 10 to 40GB.The newer generation of iPods also included a lithium-ion power source.
