The new Nano's are gonna be a Christmas hit.”

By the likes of me...
Anyways I think that Apple have used some good marketing bringing it out now just in time for Xmas

What rocks:
Looks nice
Looks like it will have Wi-Fi earphones (in travel pack)
sharing
AAC baby!
ETC
What sucks:
No UK release date
Details a bit limited, like it sounds like you can access wifi on it but does not confirm it.

But I will still get one anyway.lol

Bye Bye

Same buttons as the old 3G iPod from way back in the day....looks original with the whole circular wheel thing too. . not.

I think the brown zune really sums up the fact it's Sh*t.

yeh they shouldnt have brown they should of left it as white and black models. I want a reliase date for the frinking uk

Endgadget, which is pretty accurate, has heard the rumord price of $399, which is $50 more than the 80gig iPod.

That wheel thing is no click wheel and does not operate in the same manner. All you have here is a plastic box with images over laid post production. I think this will fail due to the plain fact that its UI is likely to be rubbish as there is no scroll option.

Call me an Apple Fan boy if you like but if thw Zune is anything like Windows it will be crap - WiFi - send viruses to every Zune owner you know. :-p

iPod already has 70 million users - I don't see why this will be anymore succssful than all the other players that come no where near to Apple.

Zune Marketplace - WTF? Blue screen of death, you wait and see.

Notice Zune's software for the computer is almost identical in layout as iTunes. (much the same as Vista's Calendar...complete with apples colour scheme.)
We'll see when it comes out i guess.

LOOK.
Ur 1 of people who make microsoft looks shit rubbish. Microsoft Zune i gruntee u it will be better then the nano / video. At least it wont have any international law suits because of scratches or screen cracks. Windows will only get a virus if u dont know how to use it, if you dont keep up with tall the latist pacthes and anti virus updates. You go with Apple because ur the n00b if u get a virus ull just reformat ur hdd dont know what to do someone who knows what they are doing in windows wont have an issue. And so what if it doesnt have a click wheel? At least they dont steal creatives idea

I would never suggest such a thing. People talking about sharing as if its a good thing. Apple aren't doing this for two reasons:

1) "Show me the battery life in something that uses wi-fi" - or something like that...it'll be awful.

2)3 plays for 3 days?.....whats the point exactly

1) I cant show u the battery life, how do you know Microsoft not gonna come out with it and the life is gonna be better then the ipod video???? you / we dont know nothing about it so dont say that

so what let people share who gives a dam and im sure they gonna do something about that

I'm no n00b but you miss the point.
You'll see - it's an iPod rip off, and like all the others, will flop.
