In addition to New iPod Models released today, Apple also announced a new "iPod Camera Connector" accessory.
The optional accessory allows users to connect their digital camera directly to the iPod Photo and to import their photos into the iPod.
Imported photos are viewable on the iPod Photo and can be synced with iPhoto on the Mac (as well as various photo apps on the PC). It will be available in late March for $29.
