Very cool.. Just a shame it needs a degree in Nerdnux to make it possible. Apple could easily have done this themselves if they wanted. So Why didn't they? Im guessing its down to…

Is it possible for me to adjust the resolution to make the video even smaller? I can only watch movies on screens that are the size of a postage stamp.

umm... Why don't you do it? Sounds like a great idea. Get a design down, find some manufacturer's and have at it. You could make a little money.

i was thinking of something like this, but i swear i'll sit on it, and then goodbye nano.

The folks over at Arstechnica seem to have shown that sitting on the Nano really isn't that big of a deal The thing is practically indestructable. Check it out
