For those who have the latest Ipod Nano with video, how is it? Any comments about it? Complaints? I want to know before I buy one.

And reach across the farthest land
And tell the broken there is healing
And mercy in the Father's hands"

my friends all give rave reviews when they saw it at the apple store, so i'd say go for it! I will buy one when I can unload my 1st gen Nano smile.gif

I'm loving mine so far. No flaws that I can pick out. I just hate the freakin' material they used for the backing (that mirror-like material); it's just begging to be scratched. Another issue to consider is that there are practically no cases being sold for this new Nano yet. except for that armband one. so I'd wait a little bit. Or you could be like me and wrap cling wrap around it HAHA

The color red is really off from what I was thinking - I was hoping it'd be like the 2nd gen "flame" red. It's actually something like dark pink O_o So I suggest don't get the red one =__=;; But it's super tiny and cute >_<

The polished metal backing gets irritating. I like the screen though.. they did a better job using..I think glass?

I don't own one myself though. I think I'll hold out until they revert back to full aluminum. They're always done it right afterwards anyway.

I've always wondered... why do people even want a Nano that plays video. The screen is so damn small! LOL I remember once I had a friend who had one of those cheapo video players you can buy at those shady Chinese stores and he put some anime on it. He kept claiming if you squint a little, you can actually read the subtitles. biggrin.gif

After seeing the new Nano, I still like the old Nano design better.

Yeah I never even understood why people would watch movies on a REGULAR video iPod. even the screen on that is too small to be comfortably watching a 2hour movie.

On a small screen like that, yes!

I have a Sansa e200 and don't even like watching videos on that small screen.

It's just cheaper if you buy the Chinese/Korean knock-off of a nano (but it can play video) online...it's like $50-60 vs over $100 for a nano. They come out with a new one every season, just screwing over the people with last season's model. tongue.gif
I'm still technically on a hiatus, but I'll try to check PMs every now and then. :D

LOL screwing over? C'mon do you really care that much?

Technology is *always* improving. Heck, things these days are probably obsolete by the time you buy them. Cellphones, cars, computers etc.

So, the question is: does it really make a difference? I have a 2G Nano right now and I see no reason to buy a 3G Nano. The functionality is 90% the same. Everyone who bought the "2007" iPods should still be plenty happy with their purchase.

It's a ripoff of Creative's Zen V Plus mp3 player which came out last year.

It's a rip-off just because it became wider and stumpier like the Zen? huh.gif adding a video-playing function was a logical next step for the Nano, so I don't think Apple "copied" the Zen at all
