Tim, one of our genius developers was looking through an article about the new ipod nanos coming out and I could just kick myself for not waiting until they came out! The colors are way prettier and look eye popping, base on the photos I saw on TechCrunch. They seem to have meshed the old design of the original ipod nano with some of the new functionality of the new ipod touch. You shake it to activate shuffle and it’s perfect for showing off photos on TechCrunch. I just purchased an 8G ipod in black (which really is more of a charcoal gray then a black), and paid $199.00 plus tax not much more than a month ago! Had I waited, I could have had the sleek, sexy, skinnier new ipod nano, which comes in 8G and 16G, in a brilliant candy apple green! I could have had double the memory and a color that I was proud to show off, but it’s too late! I am stuck with my boring Charcoal gray “black” ipod touch. I guess it is okay though. Critics who were able to preview the new nano mentioned that it isn’t worth upgrading to, as the only features that are different from the ipod that just came out last year, are the screen that you can tilt, which is better for photo sharing, and the shaking shuffle feature. I guess, for me, I would prefer to have a prettier ipod with more memory then the ability to shake my ipod. After all, it isn’t an Etch a Sketch.
