It all started with the wheel and compact design. Since the introduction of the first iPods the line has undergone many changes and additions, but the main iPod always remained undergoing constant feature improvements and capacity upgrades. Now the iPod undergoes a name change to the iPod Classic making room for the iPod Touch. The Classic is the direct sucessor to what was previously known as the iPod Video. Again, the main differences are new features and increased capacity.
The body is made entirely metallic with an anodized look. From a software perspective the interface is improved with what Apple calls their "Enhanced UI" which is also found on the new iPod Nanos. When browsing music and photos album covers and thumbnails randomly fade in and out of the screen. While listing to a particular song the album's cover and song information are displayed at the same time. Cover Flow is Apple's fancy method for selecting a particular album that lets you flip between album covers using the touch wheel. At 320x240 the 2.5 inch screen's resolution remains unchanged.
No changes have been made to the audio, video, and photo compatibility. Audio formats are limited to AAC, MP3, AIFF and WAV, but no new formats such as Ogg Vorbis are supported. Similarly with video compatibility remains solely with the iPod specific reduced H.264 format.
The iPod event in September 2009 has proven to mean very little for the classic. A mere bump in capacity, the remaining technical specs and features have remained unchanged.

when i had bought my ipod classic i was very excited when i got it, it has amazing storage space, a sleek design and a nice weight in your hand. after about a month of use, the scroll wheel became less sensitive, and i wish there was a setting to change the sensitivity, also i would have liked it the ipod had a radio feature, other then that it is a perfect product

Transferred my entire music collection over in a matter of days. I will treasure this forever! Think this is a better deal / buy that the Touch - don't need all the games / apps, etc. and I think this performs a bit better.
The screen cracks easily. Wish sync with iTunes software was both ways.
It has the space I need for ALL my sound needs! Personal CD's, Online purchased music, and Podcasts!
