The 2nd generation of the iPod was announced on July 17th, 2002. The 2nd generation of iPod used a similar design as the original and first iPod, but the top of the iPod was redesigned. Apple changed the hold switch, added a cover to the [[FireWire]] port and the mechanical scrolling wheel was replaced by a touch-sensitive clickwheel. The 2nd generation iPod was sold in two capacities, 10GB and 20GB. The two storage sizes were priced at US$399 and US$499, respectively.

The 2nd generation iPod featured a Windows-version so you could use the device on the Microsoft Windows operating system. These Windows-compatible editions came bundled with a 4 to 6-pin FireWire adapter. With the device, came a bundled copy of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musicmatch_Jukebox MusicMatch Jukebox] for at this time iTunes was not available for Windows yet.{{Citation_needed}}

Much like its predecessor, the [[iPod (1st generation)]], the 2nd generation iPod suffered from its one and only interface — [[FireWire| FireWire 400]] for charging and syncing with no compatability for [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB USB] at all.

In December 2002, Apple unveiled it’s very first limited edition iPod. You could get an iPod with a signature from either [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madonna Madonna], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Hawk Tony Hawk] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beck Beck]. An engraving of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_Doubt No Doubt]’s band logo was also available on the rear housing for an additional USD$50 charge. {{Citation_needed}}
