In Case You Were Wondering


The big Apple announcement was the introduction of the iPod Nano. About a thousand songs, a color screen for photos (about 25,000 of them), 14 hour battery life, and it’s only about twice as wide as the Shuffle and just as thin.
It is really small.
Also, Apple's always available “don’t need technical support to turn the damn thing on,” feature.
Most thought the big hub-bub was about the yet to be named iPhone, but unlike some companies, Apple likes to make sure their products work before introductions. I suppose there’s a few bugs to work out.
Either way, the Nano is only about $200 and I think I’ll be getting one for Christmas.

Comments:
Of course, I got my hands on one before the box was even cold. It's glorious.
It's not just as thin as the shuffle. Its half as thin, at least.
It's like a slightly thickened business card, but not as big.
It fits in my WALLET.
And that iTunes phone everyone was waiting for? I don't think there's anyone who's not disappointed, even though it is exactly what was rumored. The problem here is that it isn't an Apple product, it's a Motorola with one Apple bit of software in it. Unfortunately, Motorola sucks big time.
