1GB iPod Nano?
I don't get it.
I believe this is the first iPod where storage gets smaller instead of bigger.
Rather than increasing storage, the 1GB Nano crosses the Shuffle line up and I think it'll cause confusion. Before this, Apple was very clear in their line up and there were boundaries. If Apple continues crossing boundaries, I think it'll end up like the Creatives, iRivers, Samsungs and other mp3 player companies which make a bunch of similiar storage sized players in various form factors.
Maybe I'll expand on this but now getting sleepy and tired.
