Greener Apples

Apple has stepped up to the plate and has joined in the "Greener" effort of America. Steve Jobs is in production of less toxic and easier to recycle 4th generation iPod nanos. Today, at the Apple event, Jobs addressed a few of the eco friendly upgrades the new wave of nanos will have:

Arsenic-free display glass
Construction free of Brominated Flame Retardants (BFRs)
No use of mercury
No use of PVCs
Highly recyclable metal casings

"The new Nanos are priced at $149 for 8 GB storage and $199 for 16 GB. Featuring nine colors, an improved video display, and the addition of the motion-sensing accelerometer first introduced in Apple’s popular iPhone, they’re already onsale at the Apple Store. Retail outlets should stocked by this weekend." - Eco Tech Daily
