Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs returned to his showman role today, taking the stage at a product launch event for the first time since his nearly six-month-long medical leave. Jobs, who had a liver transplant this spring, got a standing ovation. He announced updates to Apple’s iTunes and iPhone software and unveiled a new iPod Nano with a built-in video camera, sound recording and speaker. Apple also announced price cuts to existing iPod Touch models—$199 for an 8-gigabyte model, or $30 less. Other changes to the iPod line include a beefier iPod classic, which now has a 160 GB hard drive for the existing $249 price.
