Can't get much smaller before the USB port becomes a limit. Pretty cool.

Though I have to say I'm eagerly awaiting the iTv

I'm still mystified why they don't do the regular iPod in different colors. I have a white one, and I hate it. It's like putty grey computers: why, why, why??

Am I greedy because I want 30GB+ on a nano-sized thing?

am i correct that on the shuffle thiny you can't see what song is starting?

1) Costs. Too many to stock and distribute. They'd always be out of the color you want. Go to colorware.com, and order one--it's like $25 or so.

2) No, unrealisitic. There's an actual hard drive in the full-sized iPod, whereas the nano is flash.

Interesting, but we have yet to see whether it requires another mac to be up and running, from which the media is streamed. if so, you might as well just use a mini. if, on the other hand, it can stream from a NAS or from a simple HDD, it becomes very interesting. Lets wait for Q1 2007.

It's www.colorwarepc.com

and those are totally cool.

I'm getting my next one there, for sure.

The iPod is black. But you can't see much of it. Just the super cool, pebbled leather case.

I rock.

You're telling me. I'm going to order an 8gb nano today.

Just get yourself a Ferrari-themed notebook computer:

I'm spoiled by my current 4G's 20 GB of space. Not sure I could go down to 8gb.

The nano that I buy will be purely for running/workouts. I'm not really sure I need 8 gigs. Hell, I'm not sure that I need 4, but that seems reasonable to hold enough playlists to keep me interested for an hour or so while I try to distract myself into running just a little further.

Plus, I'm still toying with the Nike+ and I think it only works with the nano.

Indeed, nano only. Considering it myself (though not with Nike shoes); let me know if you pull the trigger. Trying to decide if I'd rather have Nike +, a Polar hr monitor w/ foot pod, of Garmin GPS (with our w/o hrm).
