New iPod nano: Another iPhone!
« on: September 17, 2010, 09:14:57 am »
We all know how creative Apple is, with the iTouch, iPhone, iPhone Mammoth, and iPad all looking EXACTLY THE SAME. Well, apparently, theres a new iPod Nano. And wouldnt ya know it? Its a like a small fucking iPhone/iTouch! GRAND.

Exactly (although the fanboys will probably find the extra cash). And the nano is essentially the same thing just with a smaller screen. If it does support apps, though, i would like to see a port of TouchGrind just to see how it plays.

they fkin downgraded it majorly
old nano:
shoot video
play games
take pictures
easy to look at screen
easy navigation

new nano:
no camera
no games
no navigation (you have to press on the screen or something stupid to get back to the home screen)
super small screen

Smaller isnt always better apple, and you failed at doing it.. I would see this as a shuffle replacement at most if even that, but then again, you couldnt navigate good

edit:

nope cuz you cant do crap with what you got now let alone a game

They'll probably try to fool people into buying it saying it's all new and cool, then people will discover it does less stuff and buy an additional iPhone or the like afterward.

It really does just look like a new iPod Shuffle instead of a Nano.

The nano just has the ios syle interface on the main screen, after that, it's just black and white menus.

Well, one thing Apple's done right: loyalty and somehow making everyone want what they make, no matter what the actual features.

Sounds just like TI :)

Its because everything they make is so shiny with cute little animations for everything, but no actual features. It creates some sort of loyalty with the ignorant fanboys. For example, if someone buys an apple router and a windows laptop, and the laptop wont associate with the router properly, they assume that since the apple router is prettier than the laptop, that the laptop has the problem, when in fact its apple's crappy compatibility that causes the problem. They then return the laptop and buy another mac. Tricking ignorant people into wasting extra money is a great way to do business, but it makes you a real asshole of a person. I like Zune better anyway :D
