Manufacturer's Description

A thinner design. A brighter display. Up to 24 hours of battery life. Just about the only thing that hasn’t changed is the name. The 4GB iPod nano puts 1,000 songs in your pocket.(1)

Look like a rock star

Your music says a lot about you. So should your iPod nano. A super-slim design says you always have room for music — up to 1,000 songs, in fact. Durable anodized aluminum says you won’t let the rough and tumble of everyday life ruin your groove.

Carry a tune (or 1,000)

Choose a 4GB iPod nano and add a soundtrack to your life. Just use iTunes to import your CDs, shop for songs on the iTunes Store, then sync them to iPod nano. Possibly the world’s coolest photo album, iPod nano holds up to 12,500 snapshots.(2) iPod nano plays audiobooks and podcasts from the iTunes Store, too.

Play more encores
Imagine what you could do in a day. Fly around the world. Watch two sunsets. Listen to your iPod nano. Up to 24 hours of battery life(3) means the hits just keep on coming. Whether you’re exercising, commuting, or rocking a road trip, iPod nano may just outplay you.

Light up the stage

While it can't stop the rain, iPod nano might make your day a bit brighter. 40% brighter, to be exact. Album art pops and slideshows stun on the iPod nano’s dazzling display. That means everything looks as good as it sounds.

Go on tour

Add accessories and your music stays with you at home and on the go. Of course, iPod nano itself makes a great accessory. Wear up to 1,000 songs around your neck. Run with up to five days of skip-free music on your arm. iPod nano is the new black (and pink and blue and green and silver).

1. Song capacity based on 4 minutes per song and 128-Kbps AAC encoding; actual capacity varies by content. 1GB = 1 billion bytes; actual formatted capacity less.
2. Photo capacity based on iPod-viewable photos transferred from iTunes.
3. Up to 24 hours of battery life refers to music playback. Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. Battery life and number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See www.apple.com/batteries for more information.

2nd Generation save apple
I purchased this new version of the ipod nano 3 days ago and I am highly impressed by the quality. When i first saw the original nanos I was glad that I hadn't spent money on them as they looked thin and cheap and scratched in many cases but this 2nd generation nano is much better as it is very similar to the popular ipod Mini which was also big in it's day. The battery life is superb, I've listened to it every night before falling asleep and on the first day it was turned on and off a lot and shown off too so it's done well since it's only been charged once. The Nano itself is a very stylish and sturdy piece of equipment it's bright colours increase it's "Prettiness" and the metallic finish prevents it from looking cheap. Finally the sound quality and screen are much better than it's predecessor. I have to say, I'm an exceptionally clumsy person and have already managed to drop my nano - four times - but there is not a single scratch, mark or bump on it. Great considering It's tossed into my school bag most mornings. A definate must buy for those who want to get a nano but weren't sure on the first generation version. This is exceptional!

Blue Beauty
I saved up and bought this last month; my previous mp3 (bought the month beforehand) was a cheap eBay iPod copy from Hong Kong, and has given me utter mental trauma. There's a reason it's cheap, people.
This was my first ever iPod product, and I love it. The case and screen - to my surprise - do not scratch easily, although for the more grubby you may want to give it a little wipe every now and again to remove fingerprints from excessive use! It connected to iTunes very quickly on my laptop - around 5 mins - although according to my friend if your internet takes a long time to load you should set up and then go away with a cup of tea and read a book, checking occasionally to see how it's doing.
I like the Click Wheel a lot - I'm pretty sure that having to click the button every time to change music selection and wait for it to change each time was as irritating to those around me as to me with my old model. Plus, the advantages of being able to create your own playlists to suit whatever mood you are in, etc. The battery life is wonderful - stood me a ten-hour uni trip without slowing down.
And of course, the blue just makes it good to look at.
Overall, I would recommend this product (however, I have not had to face the Evil HQ of APPLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, so beware and take plenty of Prozac beforehand as a precaution...) Happy playing!

Really happy with this
My previous ipod finally died after at least 3 years of use, so i decided it was time to get a fashionable mp3 player. And although the ipod nano is an incredibly cool little gadget/fashion accessory, I can honestly say that it's a great music player, too.
My friend had one of those older black nanos with the square edges and it was completely scratched after just a week of use. These newer models, however (mine is the 4gb blue model) are far more durable. I have been using mine every day for just over two weeks with no kind of protective case or anything, just in my jeans pocket, and it could be mistaken for a brand new one straight out of the box. No dirt, scuffs or marks of any kind have appeared, and its metal case gives it a real durability (I thought i was going to break it when i first got it out of the box!)
The little screen is really nice and bright, and pops up little pictures of album artwork when your music is playing, which is a neat touch. It can also store and display photos, although quite why anyone would want to look at a photo on a 1-inch screen is beyond me!
The ipod's battery has been improved, too. I recently took mine to Amsterdam with a University trip for 5 days, and when i got there, i realised i'd left the charger at home. No problemo, the ipod survived the full 5 days of frequent use!
Finally, another small thing they've improved, is the transition between tracks. Older ipods had an annoying little pause in between tracks, which as any fan of electronic music will tell you, completely ruins a mix or DJ set. This has been remedied, and tracks now play seamlessly together with no pause.

Overall, I was a bit dubious at first of quite how 'gadgety' the thing is, but when you get into the feel of using a nano, you'll never look back. Well worth the money. Highly recommended
