Definition:

1st Generation iPod Mini - The first generation iPod Mini is a colorful, slightly rounded iPod that is thinner than the clickwheel or Video iPods, but larger than the iPod nano. It was introduced prior to the existence of the iPod nano but served the same role: a moderate-capacity iPod with an appealing price.

The first-generation Apple iPod Mini has a black and white screen, its hold button on the top left, and the labels for its buttons printed on its clickwheel.
