Apple's All New iPod Nano, One Step Closer to an iWatch

 
Well, Apple did it again in typical Apple style. One of the big surprises at today's big event was an all new redesigned iPod nano. The redesigned iPod Nano just happens to fit one of the ideas that we presented in our August 14, 2010 report that described a "one sensing touch element." As you could see above, that aspect of the patent came to life. Yet far more important is the fact that Apple is now one step closer to delivering the ultimate consumer product: The iWatch. In fact I'm surprised that they didn't sell a watch strap accessory to hold the new redesigned iPod nano. Perhaps that's in the works.  

Is the iWatch coming?

 

 

As Steve Jobs said while still on the iPod nano: "It's still amazing to hold this much music in your hands." Yes Steve, I still marvel at that all of the time, as do most, I suspect. And this version of the iPod nano is very cool and is bound to be a winner for Christmas. Then again, some may not like the redesign. Some may hate the clip-on idea, some may love it. In some ways, I think that Apple should have waited for this to be the iWatch. But that's only my first impression. 

 

Which brings us around to the question of the day: Do you think that Apple is currently working on an iWatch or will the iPod nano naturally gravitate to that eventually?

 

 

While we're at it, the floor is now open: What did you think about the Special Event keynote? Make your positions known in our comments below.  

Cheers!

I guess I won't be buying a video nano for Christmas. Right now my first impression is yuck.

Apple should have done this with the shuffle. This is a very strange move on Apple's part. Maybe I'll grow into it.

I love the new design. I hate the new design. I'm so confused. They should have waited until it was a watch. Then it would have made sense.
