About the same size as a lump of coal.

Just saw one yesterday. A good approximation is taking 3 cd's and stacking them on top of each other, should be fairly close.

Good luck!!

So it's either the iPod, or those three Yanni CDs that she knows you 'll love.

I am wearing my Nano now and reading this... pretty funny. The box is small. I would agree with the 4"x5" reference.

Ever notice that EVERYTHING is about 80% packaging crap? No wonder the forests are being killed off - it's all to make packaging material. No matter what it is, it's made about 80% larger just by all the packaging crapola.

Don't try and guess....that makes Christmas morning not as much fun!!!!

When I was about 14, I peeked at one of my gifts from my parents and then when I opend it on Christmas morning it was SOOOOO unsurprising! Catch my drift? That is why surprises are so much fun...especially when they are gifts

I never have done that again

Nano !? . . . that it is so last week. I'm getting the new solar powered iPod Pico. That's right . . .you wear them like contact lenses, and they play stereo video right into your eyes.
