Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
It's the small iPod with one very big idea: Video. Now the world's most popular music player lets you enjoy TV shows, movies, video podcasts, and more. The larger, brighter display means amazing picture quality. In five eye-catching colors, iPod nano is stunning all around.

Amazon.com Product Description
An anodized aluminum top and polished stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colors. A larger, brighter display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever. iPod nano stirs up visual effects from the outside in.

And it'll wow you for hours. Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge. All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod nano one small big attraction.

Cover Flow
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod nano, you can flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to flip it over and see the track list.



In addition to listening to music you can now enjoy TV shows, movies, video podcasts, and more. View iPod nano dimensions.


The iPod nano comes in a host of exciting new colors.


Play up to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on one charge. View larger.
Music
Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album, song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click Shuffle Songs. iPod nano makes your music look as good as it sounds, thanks to its bright color display.

Movies
Buy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync them to your iPod nano to watch anywhere, anytime. Up to 5 hours of video playback means you can watch two movies back to back. And for your viewing pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display--with a whopping 204 pixels per inch--is 65 percent brighter than before.

TV Shows
There's always something good on iPod nano. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, buy them for just $1.99 each, then sync them to your iPod nano. Watch last night's episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a pocket-size marathon.

Podcasts
The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts, including indie favorites and offerings from such big names as ABC News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more. Browse and subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod nano. You can even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Audiobooks
The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands of audiobooks--including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter series--so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod nano takes you. iPod nano even recognizes where you left off reading and bookmarks your place.

Games
Put hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod nano comes with three games--Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike--and you can download more from the iTunes Store for $4.99 each. All iPod games are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2-inch color display.

Photos
iPod nano holds up to 7,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails. To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even view your photo slideshows--complete with music and transitions--on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.

Extras
Calendars, contacts, and a screen lock appear in the Extras menu, along with a few more handy items. Take the world clock, for example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose different clocks for cities all over the world. For workouts, use the built-in stopwatch to log your best times.

5 out of 5 stars Get better with every new generation   July 3, 2008
Carbon8 Studios (PA, USA)
What can anyone say about iPods. They are simply perfect in every way and the new nanos are no exception.


5 out of 5 stars iPod Nano   July 2, 2008
M. Steen (Poconos, PA)
I have had several other MP3 players but never had an Apple iPod before. I couldn't be happier with the Nano. The sound quality is wonderful and it is very easy to use. I would highly recommend the Apple IPod Nano.


5 out of 5 stars A big jump from the 1st generation shuffle to this!   July 1, 2008
Eric Heidel (Knoxville, TN USA)
I couldn't be happier with this purchase! The nano is compact with enough power to fit my needs. A great price for such a powerful little gadget.


5 out of 5 stars blue ipod nano   July 1, 2008
R. Hitchler (iowa, usa)
What's to say that hasn't already been said. Great product and AMAZON has the best price I've found so far. Love my new IPOD!


4 out of 5 stars Started with 4GB. Wish there were more color choices.   June 30, 2008
Juliet Capulet (Tacoma, Washington United States)
I purchased two of these for my husband and I to enjoy at the gym. I Love the size and it is really easy to figure out! In retrospect I wish I would have payed the extra $50 to upgrade to the 8GB. Not to mention, it would have been nice to get different colors. I would have liked to have seen an option for more than just the silver. Maybe one of these days, they will come out with a trade up program.. =)
