Apple Intros New iPod Nano
Tuesday, September 9, 2008
Posted by: Glenn
Apple today introduced the new fourth generation iPod nano, the thinnest iPod ever featuring a sleek new design with a curved aluminum and glass enclosure. The new iPod nano incorporates Apple's breakthrough Genius technology which automatically creates playlists from songs in your music library that go great together, with just one click. The new iPod nano also features a refined user interface, a high resolution portrait display and a built-in accelerometer which automatically switches to Cover Flow when rotated and automatically goes into Shuffle mode when lightly shaken. The new iPod nano gives users up to 24 hours of music playback or four hours of video playback and is available worldwide immediately in an 8GB model for $149 and a 16GB model for $199. Both models come in silver, purple, blue, green, orange, yellow, pink, (PRODUCT) RED and black.

| I think the new nanos look awesome, but Apple should have given these bad boys a wireless connection and the WiFi Music Store. If Microsoft can do it with the Zune.... |

My wife emailed me and said order the orange. Sometimes I wonder who the bigger Apple fan in our family is.  _________________ 1.42GHz Mac mini

| Not buying one, but I think they look really sweet. Definitely better than the little fat one. |

I think they look awesome and great features for the price, I would get an orange or yellow one if I were to buy one. _________________ MacBook 1.83Ghz C2D, 2GB Ram, 160GB 7200rpm HDD, OS X 10.6.5

The yellow and orange are sharp. Call me boring, but I'd probably go with silver. I think it looks smoking with the black click wheel. |

My little fat one seems to be on its last leg, as long as it lasts past 8-10-08 I can use the Best Buy warrenty for a new 4g, but my 3g seems to be having issues holding a charge. _________________ "You must control your future by taking command of your present, and fixing and learning from your past."

That's cool. I'm hoping my 1G has a faulty battery, overheats and catches on fire. That would entitle me to a replacement.... right?  |

My shuffles all ended up with corrupted data problems, my 1G nano the screen stopped working, my 2G the audio ended up just screaching in my ear, my 3G the battery is getting low capacity, and my warrenty is good for another 13 months. It's better I burn through them than one burn through me though . _________________ "You must control your future by taking command of your present, and fixing and learning from your past."
