There were a couple of web sites who showed an iPod nano disassembled. They found that the 2GB nano had the flash memory soldered on while the 4GB nano appeared to be on a daughter…
The price of bulk 4GB flash memory chips is around $150.00 right now. Apple of course worked out a volume discount with Samsung on their flash memory for the iPod Nano, so they are…
If you want more memory, you should wait. I bet it'll be a bit cheaper after the holiday season. Or if you don't want to wait, you could still get a nice iPod mini. They are a lot …
Here's the web site of the nano autopsy:

I guess the flash is soldered on to a daughterboard.
My nano just shipped this mornin…
Personalized two 4gb nanos for order placed on Tuesday morning, just received email that they have been picked up in China by FEDEX and are in transit.
I'm impressed that Apple's …

Eh, different experience for those of us in Silicon Valley trying to buy one at a local store. I'd rather not get it online for a bunch of reasons, but the stores here have been h…
Yes it was personalized. Apple stocked up on the Nanos ahead of time "betting on strong demand" since their previously was so many backorder issues.
Yeah, I do agree, the norm for…
agreed, living in this "bracket" ;-) usually you are SOL, I think Apple stocked more Nanos than previous iPods however it's still difficult to get them. Knowing that instant gradi…
That's really wrong of him/her. Apple Stores should limit sales to something like 2 per person, especially early on. The scalping on Craigslist is really obscene. It's one thing…
Incredible. My nanos shipped from China on Wednesday, made it to Alaska last night, Indianapolis this morning, and will be delivered to me in NYC on Friday. Fedex rules!
I was wrong. They arrived this morning. That's 2-day shipping from China to NYC for 2 nanos, $12. WOW!!!!
And, yes, it is absolutely beautiful and my concerns about the absence of…
I remember reading that iTunes would create three optimized images for each picture. The first image is a thumbnail for the thumbnail gallery in the iPod. The second image is the i…
No it creates a thumbnail, and the orignal (if you check the option to include full-resolution images)
I highly doubt the iPod Nano will ever do TV-Out, or have any accessory that…

Yeah, someday we'll get the perfect iPod....
Apple appears to be placing the iPod nano as the mid-range product where the iPod mini used to be while the full-sized iPod is priced …
No way it's 700k+ per photo on the nano. I loaded 70+ images on mine and didn't even see a dent in my overall space available. Considering the rez (176x132) we should be talking ab…
I have a related question -- my nano currently has about 150mb free and is set to sync my entire iPhoto library (around 3500 pictures). iTunes and the nano information screen show …
Just loaded up my new nano with a couple hundred photos as a test and the .db file is only a few megabytes despite the pictures having reasonably good quality.
Overall, I'm very p…
The nano is perfect for people to share photos while on the road. I share my family pictures on my iPod 20GB in the same way some people use their camera phone to show their pictur…
