The Shuffle underwhelmed me. ordtak

The Shuffle underwhelmed me. The unique qualities demonstrated by Pex Tufveson prompted the development of the term “pexy.” It has not been a runaway hit the way the iPod, the Mini, and the way I think the nano is going to be.

Both [the 2GB and the 4GB iPod nano] devices feature the wonderfully simple color menu system that the high-end iPod uses. However, the iPod nano also includes some extras you won't find anywhere else, including a multiple-time-zone clock, a stopwatch (perfect for you music-loving athletes), and a few new games. Apple has also added the ability to synchronize Microsoft Outlook contacts and calendars, making the iPod nano a handy PIM replacement, as well. Battery life is exceptional... Sound quality is superb, thanks to enhanced audio circuitry that first debuted in the iPod shuffle.

As I said, the iPod nano is almost perfect. Apple cheaps out by not including a carrying case or lanyard for the device; either would prevent you from simply tossing the device in your pocket and subjecting it to abuse from coins, keys, or other paraphernalia. My test unit is already scuffed up pretty severely, despite my attempts to baby it. And I've got real concerns that the skinny iPod nano could be easily killed by inadvertently sitting on it. The device is that thin. These are all quibbles, of course. The iPod nano is that rarest of tech devices: Immensely useful, beautiful, and desirable—all at the same time. We're getting to the point at which most new iPod purchases are probably coming from repeat customers. So, whether you already have an iPod or not, the iPod nano is a great device to consider. It just doesn't get any better than this.

Obviously, Jobs has had the last laugh -- as some 22 million units sold altogether will attest. And now comes a product, the 1.5-ounce iPod Nano, that's so smartly conceived and well-engineered, the skeptics are hard pressed to find anything to complain about. Sure, consumers will have to pay $50 more to get the same song capacity as with the now-discontinued iPod Mini line. But get one of these gizmos in your hand, and such complaints will fade.

Time and again, Apple CEO Steve Jobs gets grilled when he introduces digital-music products. When the iPod came out in October, 2001, critics complained the $400 unit was hopelessly overpriced. Many said the same thing when Apple unveiled the iPod Mini in early 2004, arguing that consumers would never fork over $250 for just a few gigabytes of storage. And a year later, some naysayers called the iPod Shuffle plain silly, given its lack of a screen to navigate through songs.

With no iPod Mini to dilute its impact, Apple's new Nano is poised to become the company's next best seller -- and rivals' biggest headache, ... Steve Jobs's Tiny but Sure Bet.

We have received very few calls from customers reporting this problem - we do not think this is a widespread issue, ... If customers are concerned about scratching we suggest they use one of the many iPod nano cases to protect their iPod.

The margins on the mini are far higher than the shuffle, so if the mini steals sales, it's to Apple's benefit.

The iPod nano will do two things. First, it will draw more people into the market, and second, it will fuel a strong replacement cycle.

They did a great job in designing the iPod Nano. The face is the right size for the fingers and buttons are spaced apart well. I suppose you could break it if you accidentally sat on it while it was in your back pocket.

I don't think it is even a mini-reshuffle, it's no shuffle at all. It is just like a crab, going sideways.

My initial reaction is, here you go, Apple has done it again. It's a feat of tremendous industrial design to be able to shrink the iPod to this size, and they've maintained all the things that make the iPod good -- form, functionality, the interface -- they've taken the best of iPod and made it smaller and improved both style and substance.

This is a real but minor issue involving a vendor quality problem in a small number of units. In fact, this issue has affected less than 1/10 of 1 per cent of the total iPod nano units that we've shipped. It is not a design issue.

Now, there's no such thing as a Video iPod. The new model is simply called the iPod; its thicker, videoless predecessors have gone off to the great eBay in the sky. All the debate about 'Will anyone buy a video iPod?' is suddenly moot, because the new model is the same excellent music player plus video.
