iPod is a brand of portable media players designed and marketed by Apple Computer and launched in 2001. Devices in the iPod range are primarily music players, designed around a central scroll wheel — although the iPod shuffle has buttons only. The full-sized model stores media on an internal hard drive, while the smaller iPod nano and iPod shuffle use flash memory. The random-play capability of the iPod shuffle is reflected in its name. Like many digital audio players, iPods can also serve as external data storage devices. Apple focused its development on the iPod's unique user interface and its ease of use, rather than on technical capability.
As of October 2005, the lineup consists of the video-capable fifth generation iPod; the smaller iPod nano; and the display-less iPod shuffle. These models were updated in September 2006.
The bundled software used for transferring music is called iTunes. As a jukebox application, iTunes stores a comprehensive library of music on the user's computer and can play, burn, and rip music from a CD. It can also sync photos and videos.
The iPod is currently the world's best-selling range of digital audio players and its worldwide mainstream adoption makes it one of the most popular consumer brands. Some of Apple's design choices and proprietary actions have, however, led to criticism and legal battles.

An iPod is a device that allows you to listen to music on the go. It does not require any discs, and saves all your music to itself. It also has the ability to play games, store data, and play back data.

niceee
great question.
Lets put it in simple words --- it's a multimedia device to put your whole music collection, notes, contacts, some games, and some videos on, and carry them on you at all times.
Great entertainment tool.
That's how Apple makes money for their supers expensive Macs! haha (kiddin':)).
