The New Apple NANO

Apple’s new iPod nano will feature 4G bytes of capacity for $249 in a device that is thinner than a #2 pencil, said Steve Jobs, at a jam-packed media event at San Francisco’s Moscone Center.

The iPod nano is 80 percent smaller than Apple’s original iPod and 62 percent smaller than the iPod mini, Jobs said. It weighs 1.5 ounces (42 grams) and comes with a color screen. The device is available in some stores as of Wednesday, and stores around the world expected to have the device by the end of the week, he said.

I think this might be the coolest IPOD yet. I thought the shuffle was a dumb idea and the “mini” wasn’t small enough. The NANO looks like it will be small enough and have all of the features of the standard size ipods.

I keep thinking that I’ll just wait on purchasing any new music players until someone comes up with the all inclusive phone, camera MP3 player. Apple and Motorola have teamed up to make a cool new phone but it’s suppose to only hold 100 songs. Also Sony is coming out with a phone/MP3 player soon. As soon as I know more about either one I’ll get you a update.

The Nano is suppose to be available starting today. You can purchase it and read more about it here Apple.com
