Apple Inc. unveiled higher-priced models of its iPhone mobile handset and iPod media player with double the memory of older versions, altering its lineup for the second time in six months to encourage shoppers to spend more.
The iPhone will now be available in a 16-gigabyte model for $499 and the iPod Touch in a $499, 32-gigabyte edition, the Cupertino, Calif.-based company said. The new iPod can store about 7,000 songs and the updated iPhone can hold about half that number.
