I've gotta say that nano looks increadable. Probably a little to small for my lumpy hands but i cannot believe what they have managed to do with so little space! Its slick, its beautiful, and once again apple are doing what they do best - showing the rest of the market how its done. Really can't say anything negative about this thing.

as for itunes 5 - i didn't half get a shock with the new skin makover - i guess this is what all the ilife apps will look like in their next revisions in order to fit with the new Tiger feel.

stupid. apple needs to concentrate on existing models instead of producing something new every few months in order to wow the potential buyers. i think this, along with the itunes phone is a good example of how apple has gone downhill.

Depends on which one you choose, respectively how big the Flash memory is you put in. 128MB, 256MB, or 512MB.

Most ROKR phones will come bundled with 512 MB flash cards, which allows you to store up to 100 average-length songs. If your phone doesn’t come with a 512 MB card, you will need 128MB of available flash storage space to store 25 average-length songs on your phone. To store 50 average-length songs on your phone, you will need 256MB of available flash storage.

Actually the Nano is a iPod Mini Gen 2. The ROKR has nothing to do with apple, they just designed the software element.

Damn, I wonder if they couldn't find a way to make it 4 and 6 GB instead of 2 and 4. That's a tad dissapointing.

Flash memory supply crypt. I would say by late spring/early summer 2006 you will see a 8&4 configuration. It's better for athletics in any case. I'm tempted to get one as a sport use vs the 40GB 4G. In any case, the 6GB mini wasn't selling up to expectation in comparison to the 4GB they offered. Might have been price, but value wise, I think the nano is in a better slot appearance [entire iPod line] wise.

So anyone have a iPod nano? Ordered one yesterday, been hearing a lot of chatter about it being prone to scratching, anyone care to elaborate?

I assume it would be, my 3rd gen got scratched, so I just accepted that it's now ugly. Next iPod I purchase gets its own case and cover.
