I expected more battery life in the ipod nano.

and no 8gb model like rumoured

Great for the person who wanted more space with the shuffle, shit for the person expecting something to truly replace the mini in terms of succession.

The 2g Mini's hold 4 and 6 gbs respectively and have 18 hours of battery life doesnt it?

 

[supercharged]

Yeah the nano has slightly less battery life than the mini G2 but its nearly the same as the regular ipod (15hrs). Probably due to the nano having a colour screen compared with the mini's mono.

 

[theone123]

damn i shuda waited colour screen at that price is preety good

 

[AsyLum]

Colour screen is pretty dodgy unless they plan to play videos of pictures on it, thereby taking away from the initial battery life

 

[Götterfunken]

Ooooooh. I want. Anyone want to buy my 4gb iPod mini? I wonder how much $AU its going to be.

 

[copious]

its on the au apple site, $299 for 2 gig and $360 for 4 gig.

I'm just glad it has a screen. And controls. And other simple things a portable music player should have.

Do you reckon it'll be as popular as the mini?

 

[SashatheMan]

fricking expensive. ill wait till sometihng similar and cheaper comes out

Hmm, I can't see why it wouldn't. I mean it has a screen, is smaller, and looks chicer. The bad sides are the cost, limited songs, and of course the headphones go in the bottom, not the top (crazy!).

Time shall tell, as always.

 

[my sharona]

I think the people who buy the minis would rather have something cheaper with different colours to choose from.

It's not that smaller, its just thinner and lighter - the height of the nano is 0.1inch shorter.

I could easily be wrong, but thats just my guess.

 

[santaslayer]

my 20G iPdod has a crappy 4 hr playback time.

 

[sunjet]

ipodnano looks sweet, when someone gets one do a review =).
I might sell my shuffle and save up for a 2GB nano ($200AU ?)

jeez, that's thin. it even has a screen.

 

[Götterfunken]

$299 according to copious.

 

[AsyLum]

Apple add another useless gimmick and get people to buy it.

 

[~ForAGoodCause~]

dam i wanted a green 8gb mini with colour screen

pretty gay, the biggest size is only 4gb ...

would they be releasing anything else soon?

 

[iambored]

page loading, can't wait!!!

hm, did anyone else want something slightly different?
I am impressed with the ipod size. I am not impressed with the pricing. Or the lack of originality.

I think it fits with the range more - a middle platform between the ipod and the shuffle.

Does it have a removable battery? Why are the headphone sockets at the bottom?
