The results are in, and it looks like the highly anticipated toys from Apple do not include an iPhone Nano as I had hoped. It looks like the features I was close on were the decreased height of the device (it looks like the iPod Touch isn’t as tall as the iPhone) and that it doesn’t cost as much to get a phone from Apple. Other than those stretches of the imagination, it looks like Apple went a different way. I’m okay with that, though.

I went to the Apple Store over the weekend to accompany my mom and my sister on a shopping spree (lil’ sis’s Compaq crashed, and it was time to upgrade her life to Macness; she got a new 13″ Macbook, an 80GB iPod Classic, iWork ’08, and some accessories; I know, it was like Christmas morning for her). I checked out the iPod Nanos and they look great. I was expecting them to be much larger and fatter, but they are still pretty small and slick. Apple is going to make bank this holiday season. I hope to help them make bank in some way.
It was a really good guess, Clifton. I’m looking forward to the iPhone Shuffle. No dialing or favorites. It just calls whoever’s “next” in your contacts!
