Apple’s Special Deals section is featuring iPods at attractive prices, with refurbished nanos going as low as $99 for the 8GB version, and a $249.00 iPod touch capable of storing 32GB of music, apps, and movies. Those looking to get an iPod and don’t have any cash to spare are encouraged to check out these deals while they’re available.

Refurbished iPod nano 8GB Black (previous generation) - $99.00

Holding up to 2,000 songs playable for up to 24 hours (four hours of video playback) and weighing just 1.3 ounces, the iPod nano 8GB Black (previous generation) is a bargain at just $99. Although this is not the latest model (which adds a camera and more vibrant colors), the previous-gen iPod nano is just as thin - 3.6 x 1.5 x 0.24 inches, and ships with Apple Earphones, a USB cable and a Dock adapter. A refurbished iPod nano 16GB Black (previous generation), capable of storing twice as much music as its 8GB sibling, goes for $129.00.

Refurbished iPod touch, 32GB (2nd generation) - $249.00

Apple’s funnest iPod, sporting a multi-touch display with a full QWERTY soft keyboard, the Safari web browser, email access, built-in Wi-Fi, built-in Nike + iPod support and a map location-based service, is also available at a discount. Besides the aforementioned strong points, Apple notes that a 32GB touch is capable of storing up to 7,000 songs / up to 25,000 photos / up to 40 hours of video and can play music non stop for a day and a half. Video playback goes up to six full hours. Weighing just 4.05 ounces, and measuring 4.3 x 2.4 x 0.33 inches, the iPod touch has a sleek, metal design, and ships with Apple earphones, a USB cable required to sync and recharge, as well as a dock adapter.
