Manufacturer's Description

New Apple iPod Nano

 

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 colours, iPod nano is stunning all around.

 

 

New Apple iPod NanoOverview

An anodized aluminum top and polished stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colours. A larger, brighter display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple New Apple iPod Nanodisplay, 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 (1). All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod nano one small big attraction.

 


New Apple iPod NanoCover 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.

New Apple iPod NanoMusic

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 colour display.

 


New Apple iPod NanoMovies

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.1 And for your viewing pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display — with a whopping 204 pixels per inch — is 65 percent brighter than before.

New Apple iPod Nano

 

New Apple iPod NanoTV Shows

There’s always something good on iPod nano. Browse thousands of episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, 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.

 


New Apple iPod NanoPodcasts

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.

 

New Apple iPod NanoAudiobooks

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.

 


New Apple iPod NanoGamesNew Apple iPod Nano

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. All iPod games are designed specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on the 2-inch colour display.

New Apple iPod NanoPhotos

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.

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.

Brilliant 22 Sep 2007
I ordered the new Nano the day it came out, and using the next day delivery service, got it the next day (obviously). When I saw the Amazon box that it came in, I realised just how small the little thing was going to be.

It didn't disapoint when I acctually saw it. It is so cute and well worth £130 (although it has now already dropped in price). The 8 GB 3rd gen Nano is the same price as the 4GB 2nd gen was when it was first released.

Besides the Nano being diddy, it is very impressive. The new, 2 inch screen is FULL of perfect colours and easily readable words (unlike the older Nano's). Cover flow (although rather useless) is a brilliant feature, it looks so good, although it takes a while to load the pictures.

I have even stored some of my own photos on it, and they look almost perfect, no elongated faces. The games have been reworked and are brilliant fun, I especially like Vortex.

If you are going to buy a new MP3 or MP4 player, go for this little beauty (unless you have THOUSANDS of songs to store on it, then go for something bigger, but personally, I think 8GB is more than enough for me.)

Hope this helps.

Picked one of these up on the High St. today (Apple Store) & I am very impressed.
Had been holding off buying an addition/upgrade for my old 3gen Ipod which still works OK until Apple were able to offer me a reason to get another.
I wanted video playback but couldn't justify a new full size Ipod - so was delighted when video available on the new Nano.
Very small & compact - less than the size of a credit card but approx 3 times as thick.
Spilt screen / Cover Flow & Battery Life all very slick & impressive.
Only slight doubt is it worth an extra £30 for the 8gb - Maybe not I've encoded 3 full length films (using Clone DVD mobile) & have 300 songs & still have 4gb free - How much media do you actually need for a holiday / train journey / flight etc?
Highly Recommended!!!

Another Apple winner 25 Oct 2007
By ChrisG
This really is a fantastic little player, it's so thin you have to see it to believe it. Slips into your pocket and you hardly know it's there!
It has a solid feel to it too so despite it being thin it's not flimsy.
The screen is bright and clear and perfect for music videos and tv episodes (not sure I'd want to watch a full length film on it though) and the sound quality is as good as my 30gb video iPod; the complaints I've heard about a drop in quality seem a bit unjustified.
The new small click wheel is easy to use and seems to be made of a more hard wearing plastic than the ones on previous iPods.
It has excellent battery life and charges quickly (3 hours charge gives about 28-30 hours playtime).
The cover flow function is okay but a bit sluggish if you have a lot of music on it, I think this is better suited to the iPhone and iPod Touch. The aluminium front panel looks better than the old plastic covers although I'm not so sure why Apple chose to go back to the 'scratch magnet' mirrored back panels again; it would have looked much better with the all round metal finish of the previous Nano.
Minor gripes aside this is a wonderful little device and highly recommended.
