The Register reports that Apple said 30 million iPods have been shipped since the iPods started shipping in November 2001. A Piper Jaffray analyst has set a target of 37 million iPods shipped by the end of 2005.

BusinessWeek delves into the repercussions of the deal that Apple struck with NAND flash suppliers. The deal seems to say that Hynix, Samsung, Toshiba, Intel, and Micron will provide Apple the supply of NAND until 2010.

There’s more that one way to skin a cat. There’s also more than one way to create or format video to play in your 5G iPod. One of the most popular is Handbrake, where formatting DVD movies for your iPod is a snap. It turns out that Mac users already have the tool for creating video for the fifth-generation iPod. The website iPod Garage gives instructions on creating movies using iMovie.

Settlement for the 3G iPod issues is delayed because of a notice to appeal.
