Isn’t it strange how the hard drive based iPods haven’t changed much in overall design but the Nano seems to get made over every year? Last year my youngest daughter got a “fat nano” and it worked perfectly for her hands. It is such a better solution than the “made for kids” type mp3 players. All that being said, the new Nano looks really sharp and I like the way they used the accelerometer. It is almost like a gateway drug to the iPod Touch and iPhone. Hmmmm. I’ve still got my g1 Nano that works like a champ. A little scratched up but it is a podcast/audiobook/smart playlist beast.

Any Macsparky readers getting the new Nano and want to write up your thoughts for the blog? Let me know.
