New Ipod Nano!

Doesn't appear to be a thread on this? Surpised if there isn't (I cannot see one..)

2.2in screen, and you can now video record! Prices start at £115 for a 8gb model

FM radio, video recording etc.

Thoughts?

Wow, that looks cool!
It'll be wierd having a camera on a Nano.

It's okay I guess, dunno why I should video with it.. But the FM thingy is rather nice!

Guess it could be useful if you forget a phone (or camera)

And the worlds biggest small screen got bigger!

Makes me laugh that the camera can only take video and not stills!

Seriously?! My God, iPods are actually getting worse each generation and new iPod released :S Why didn't they just stick to the original iPod Mini? It was the only decent iPod that didn't feel like cheap packaging, and even worse this iPod Nano technically makes it a Mini Camcorder with MP3 functionality - because the primary function is the now the camcorder/video functionality, despite being labelled as an MP3 player, it now has the ability to make media, and therefore it is no longer an iPod MP3 player, just a new generation of iPod Video Cameras :/

Oh well, guess this means iPods are no longer in the MP3 player rat race

This is of course, Apple are going against basic marketing systems and are going to claim it is still an MP3 player, even though it blatently isn't. But they do like re-writing rules so that their products make sense to themselves and only themselves

Don't see the point in the camera, I like the idea of the FM radio however. It's kinda cool but yeah, a lot of the "updates" seem completely pointless!

[Alkaz]

Oh cool, thats good if the camera is good. Anyone know the mp?

Meanwhile the Zune HD is releasing with HD Radio (The American equivalent of DAB Radio), the "new" iPod Nano is releasing with the old FM Radio which has been on mobile phones for over 5 years.

I can't believe it can't take photos, I can see how that'd be a little useful but videos? Nah. It's not like it's a decent quality camera anyway.

Why can't they add some features to the iPod Classic though?! In about 3-4 years they haven't updated it at all. They've upped it to 160GBs but 2 generations ago they used to do that, it's just adding a feature they got rid of, nothing new at all.

I thought they would have re-designed it! Are they releasing a new touch at all?
