Steve Jobs returns to Apple but commentors left underwhelmed by new products

Apple boss Steve jobs has returned to his role at the company after a year of medical leave following a liver transplant operation.

He returned to unveil the latest range of Apple products at a press conference in San Francisco. New products included the new iPod Nano, which now has a built-in video camera, FM tuner and voice recorder. Apple also lowered the price of existing iPods.
