English is my third languages, so you will get very confuse reading my post; especially when I got girly panties for my birthday from my grandmother. My point is I order black iPod nano, instead of white ipod nano.

I ran the same Poll in our local MUG forum and the numbers we're getting is pretty similar. Nearly 70% prefer the Black one over the white model. Plus NOBODY really talked about getting a ROKR phone.
Looks like the ROKR is gonna be a dud for sure. |

Man, I tried to ignore the Nano as I don't need another iPod (got the original 10g, and the shuffle), but since I was in the market for a bit of photo storage for my holidays, I figured, I could justify it that way, so went for Black.
Damn you Apple, I should just come and work for you, I spend all the money I earn on you anyway, at least this way you could pay the canteen bill! The force is strong in this one |

I'm surprised how little concern there seems to be that the shiney black nano finish is going to show every fingerprint and scratch. I personally like the look of the black nano... but would only consider it after seeing how it looks in a case... probably black leather would look outstanding.
Another question might be... "which nano/case combo looks the best?" We need a photo gallery of nanos in cases... since any iPod that displays photos needs the screen protected. |

You'll see plenty of pictures pop up in the coming weeks. But as of right now there are no Nano cases on the market (save for Apple's Nano Tubes) because the thing came out three days ago. Give it a month and the market will be flooded with them and you'll be able to make a better choice.
If you want any accessory for that matter, wait a month. You'll have a huge selection of FM transmitters specifically made for the Nano, cases, car chargers...the works. The thing is already selling like crazy, and the big players in the iPod accessory world are already developing products for it. Come waste your time with me |

Exactly.
Trust me...by Halloween, there will be gobs of nano-friendly accessories from iSkin, Griffin, etc. to choose from. I went to iSkin's site last night, just to see if maybe they got a jump on things (maybe a Photoshopped prototype on the front page of what they're working on). I like their stuff (the colors, the swivel clip, etc.). They'll do something nice for the nano, no doubt. |

I like their stuff too, I have an iSkin Evo 2 for my 20 gig 4G. I love it. It has a screen and a click wheel protector so the whole thing is protected. It doesn't add much weight or bulk to the iPod. It feels like it should be there. Not to mention it's a great protector.

Form, fit, and function... A nice iSkin black case on the black nano should be hot without being overstated. I'm going to temper my enthusiasm and wait a couple of weeks to actually see what it looks like.
I'm not surprised the iSkins aren't already out there... Apple may have an agreement that allows them a few weeks to sell their tubes (not my style). Even if I get the black, I doubt that it will come out of the case... that's why I say that how the combo looks is most important to me. Thanks for your thoughts/ideas. |

The RIAA issued a press release stating that they will file suits against all owners of the black iPod nano. The press release implies that music on black nano's is most likely illegaly downloaded through P2P programs like Kazaa or BitTorrent whereas white nano's contain music legally acquired through online stores or from the users existing collection.
Why does the RIAA hate black nano's? |

I went to the Apple store and finally saw the black and white together. With all I have read, I was still taken back by how small the nano actually is.
I'm a big fan of Apple products, but I have to say what really struck me was how bland they are. The size doesn't really allow for many interesting design features. The older iPods had rounded corners and areas of contrast. The nano looks like a thin flat strip from a refridgerator. Maybe a matte finish like the mini... or contrasting charcoal? That said, I should also say that I almost never take my 60g iPhoto anywhere because it is so big and bulky... very disappointing. I'm more than willing to give away a few style points and have a device that I will actuallly use every day. I will no longer obsess over colors and cases. A simple white and protective case and I'll only concern myself with the function. Here it scores a ten. |

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that he was joking about that?

I'm on the fence, I prefer black but not if I can't get the lanyard in black, and with in-ear phones as opposed to the buds that don't work for my physicality.
So I'm not on the fence so much as I'm in the queue for the diving board waiting for the water to be just right. I'm feeling metaphorical today! Plus i was thinking of using it as reward for a goal in my personal life. "What's a Canadian farm boy to do?" |

I'm going to see if I can trek up to the Mall of America Apple Store today, even though I'm almost positive they'd be out. (I'd call them first, of course.)
Maybe I'll have to get a 4GB model. But I don't care! I'ts a new iPod! WHOOOOO! |

Got iBook G4. Got iPod 4G. I will certainly go for a black nano... as soon as I get over this guilty feeling of just not needing it at all.
I will probably not get anything, I'll save and donate (got too many things while so many people got nothing...), but I would go for a black 4G one. That's for sure. |

After looking at my black nano for a while, it reminds me a little of a PSP. A lot, actually. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not....
