New iPod rumors (Kevin Rose?), with pic!
If this is the new iPod nano, I LOVE it!!! That's sleek and sexy, like it should be.
So much nicer-looking than the current "short and fat" design, IMO.
Looks like the 2G nano we all know and love, but given a bit of the MacBook Air "taper" treatment.
I can dig it. Once again (assuming this is legit), the iPod nano will be sexy and irresistible...just in time for the fall and holiday shopping season. They'll sell eleventy gazillion, especially if those price cuts are as dramatic as talked about (iPods no longer "competing" with the $199 iPhone...holy crap, are we talking $149 iPod touches and sub-$100 nanos?)
I hope...everyone's gift-buying would just get instantly that much easier.
All this leads to another question (especially since the product wasn't mentioned in this report): if these full-featured, flash-based, video-capable nanos
did get down to $99 (or below), would the iPhone shuffle have any reason to exist? They'd have to sell it at $29 or so, because who wouldn't spend an extra $50-75 to get a color screen, video, full controls, addresses/contacts, games, etc.?
Interesting stuff.
