Yes
It’s the thinnest iPod ever made
But only thanks to Apple’s crafty tapering at the edges. It’s also much taller than its predecessor
And unless you really

ITunes 8 arm-bending. Genius demands data. Some screen reflections. Average buds

The fact that you have to upgrade to Apple's iTunes 8 software
We can’t find much to fault about the new iPod Nano, which is just as well for Apple as there’s a lot riding on this particular product. The iPod Touch is currently still too expensive to really spearhead Apple’s sales efforts, which mea...

Design; Apple's new Genius playlist tool; accessibility features for the visually impaired
The fact that you have to upgrade to Apple's iTunes 8 software; the rounded screen invites glare; average sound quality
The fourth-generation iPod nano is easy on the eyes and the wallet, and you can't beat its hardware and user interface design. Look out for innovative accessibility features and the Genius playlist tool, but just be sure to give iTunes 8 a spin before...
Overall, the new 4G iPod nano looks like a solid upgrade in most areas, despite slightly-shorter video-watching battery life (and, to some of us, a step backwards in shape). Perhaps most important - from Apples perspective, at least - the new design,...
Abstract: Apples latest iPod Nano has the same 2in 320x240-pixel colour screen as the previous Nano (see Shopper, Whats New 238), but its in portrait rather than landscape orientation, giving more room for long lists of songs. Like the iPod Touch, the Nan...

The fourth-generation Apple iPod Touch, winner of CNET's 2011 Editors' Choice Award for portable media players, has been upgraded with new software and a boost in capacity
The fifth-generation iPod Touch offers a larger screen, faster processor, and superior photo and camcorder quality
The fourth-gen iPod Touch is Apple's second-best portable media player, with a price that will help you forget about No. 1.
Great design, Plays both video and audio, FM tuner, External speaker, Included video camera
None
I actually had the first iPod Nano and it has sure come a long way since then! That iPod only really played music that was it. With this iPod you can play music, movies, listen to the radio, play games, record video, check the time, have a calendar, an...
