How 'bout a little music?

[wludavid]

What about the pretty colors!?!?

Nooooooo!

[MichiganMat]

yeah, Apple is going to take over the world.

iPod Nano
Motorola ROKR

Creative, Sony, and the rest can pretty much close up shop.

I think that Apple, the consumer products division of Microsoft, is doing a great job.

Doh!

Just give me a slim Cell phone (Razor?) with SD card that plays songs. That's all...........

[Neilk]

Lousy POS Sprintpcs offerings. If it weren't for the unlimited texting and internet that I get for $10, I'd switch over and get an itunes phone.

The Nano looks really cool. When is Christmas again?

[FrayAdjacent911]

Pretty nice. Slim is nice

I saw Motorola is going to be making a slim non-flip style phone. IIRC, it was going to be a Smartphone, too. Bout as thick as the RAZR when unfolded.

I love my razr... drop it in my front pocket and hardly know it's there.

Though I'm not a big fan of the Ipod. I prefer the Sony Minidisc.

[jyl]

I want one. But I also want an iPod U2. What to do?

How the heck did they fit a decent battery into something the thickness of a few credit cards?

[Matt Holcomb]

That is some scary sh**.

SonyEricsson 750i, maybe? It has a 2 megapixel camera too. Dimensions are 3.9 x 1.8 x .8 inches.

Just wait till they have the next Apple OS that can run on a $200 intel box, but will only run on the $3000 intel box that apple sell you

same box btw, just different label.

I can't see sales being that high, and the diehard apple fans will have more stuff to spew about their clan

This product is what I'm talking about, even if it's a bit thick. I notice it's a UK site. These available in the US?

The new Nano is really cool... but, personally, I'm sick of these stand-alone products. I need some convergence!!! They all need to stop being so greedy and give us something really useful.

[wludavid]

Did someone say convergence?

They will work here, but I don't think you can buy one through a US carrier. You could order one from Europe and pick up a SIM card from Cingular or T-Mobile.

They've been selling like hotcakes apparently: my brother was very happy to get hold of one back in June.

I bought the ROKR phone and the 4gb nano this week. The Nano is awesme. I have a 4gb mini and it seems huge compaired to the Nano.

The phone I can't comment on at the moment. I have an old at&t account from my employer and even though we are now on Cingular that phone will not work with my sim card. I am in the process of trying to get it unlocked so I can use it.
