"The iPod Nano"

Have you seen the new ipod.

Its unreal. Im going to be sick.
Im speechless.

Nah, cheap flash based storage is one of those things in technology that isn't progressing as quick as everyone wants. Otherwise all our hard drives will be replaced by them forever.

Not too soon a while, I hope.
Like, next week most probably.

yeah, but then the size issue comes into account. Maybe with 20gig flash players, it won't be... but that'll be a while.

I always thought that if you were going for something with high-storage, it's really not much of a push to a 20G model at least from a 4 or 5.

You really think so? The 2gig nano, with colour screen, contacts, games, etc. click wheel, photo browsing and 14 hours battery life, priced at £140; compared to a multitude of 1gig and smaller flash based mini drive/ players, with a single/dual line B&W LCD, clunky controls and obligatory non-user firndly software to boot, at £70-100?

Oh, and the Zen has now got patents on the user interface their mp3-players use ... and had been using ages before iPod came around. Lawsuits abound, I should expect.

There's a new tiny tiny Zen coming out soon as well, if I recall.

The entire 1st gen of iPods died! There are hardly any that still work now if they've been used enough.

My 1st gen ZEN is still going strong. It's huge but it works fine, plus nobody will mug me for it because I'll bludgeon them to death with it.

I like Ipods but i went with a creative as i use them for my sound card and all my audio needs on my pc, i can see why people go for an ipod though as they are pretty.

i don't like all theses different versions though and the fact that they are stupidly high priced.

All the talk about ipod's being rubbish is crap. I like my ipod, yes a few of them went wrong, but so did 3 phones, silver ps2's, etc.. as well as other things. It started an era. creative are good, but apple are better

Overpriced fashion item.

Apple get an old product and bring it out like it's new and they invented it. Wow? Oh, and a phone that plays iTunes!?! OMFG!! I mean, you can only have 100 songs on it whatever, you can't have more on there, wow?!
