That ipod looks sick!
-
Well, so far, nothing came out like Kevin Rose said. So I don't see why this should be true..

That's ugly as sin.
-
I really hope that isn't the next iPod nano. It's absolutely horrible!
-
-
It's good except for the curved screen.
-
Kevin Rose has been hit and miss, so I wouldn't expect it just yet. And of course, I find Apple does its products a lot better than its mockups. I do think it reminds me of the Zune though.
-
I never really liked the square nano's. They just look too un-ipody
-
It looks like a chinese knockoff of the second gen nano. If this is real, somebody please shoot whoever designed it, then beat His Steveness with a MacBook for OKing the design.
It really is as ugly as sin. -
This makes the Zune look sexy...lol -
At first glance I thought it was the Zune...Not a big fan of the nano so no comment.

he is not good in photoshop
-
That's a mockup, not a "leaked image". What 9to5 Mac posted a year ago (wow, its been a year!) was a leaked image of the iPod Nano. So this is just someone's mockup.
-
I actually think it doesn't look half bad...
-
I'm actually kind of surprised that Apple's sticking around with the Click Wheel, even with the Nano. With all the multitouch, it makes the Click Wheel feel like "old generation" technology, and I would think Apple would go with a smaller touch screen on the Nano by now. Maybe a Nano with just the iPod interface of the iPhone/Touch, and no home screen with lots of icons.

In any case, have any iPod design lasted so brief a time? I don't think Apple would have a major redesign of the Nano so soon unless the current model is doing poorly. -
-
Sorry to disappoint those who didn't like the curved screen nano, but here's more proof it's legit.

The new images on engadget show the screen's vertical edges are the only part of the screen that are curved; the front main part of the screen appears flat which is good news IMO.
-
I don't get what's going on around the bottom.
Anyway, isn't Apple famous for not giving third-party manufacturers the case designs? Maybe that was the past, since the iPhone 3G cases were accurate. -
Well, I hope they slash prices on the Touch and iPods then like Kevin says they are going to, because I won't be buying another iPod if they look like that picture.
-
I also don't like the design.I want 64GB i-Touch (Oh ya! With reasonable price)
-
another thumbs down from me. Ugliest PMP I have ever seen >.< and the design looks like a knock off of this AU phone (AU=japanese cell company). Ignore the black outline that is not supposed to be there
comments? -
-
Actually I'm not going to lie but that new nano looks a lot like that phone minus replacing the keypad with a scroll wheel. If that is the new nano I feel bad for apple and its customers because that is ugly as sin.
For me here's how it goes in terms of preference. (I have the 1st gen nano)
1. 2nd gen nano
2. 3rd gen nano
3. 1st gen nano
4. "4th" gen nano (if this is the design its really ugly). -
-
Imaging replacing the touchpad and bamng you have your nano -
The thing looks like a flash-based Zune that has been modified slightly to give it the curved look and the "squircle" has been replaced with a click-wheel.
-
Extremely ugly.
-
Everybody said the same things when the fat nano design was leaked, about how it was horrible and ugly and whatnot, no doubt if this new Nano design is accurate, then it'll look much nicer in the flesh and in proper Apple press shots.
I'll wait till they're officially revealed before deciding on whether I like it or not. -
.
Sometimes I warm up to Apple products though. I was skeptical of the aluminum iMac but now I definitely prefer its design over the white iMac. -

Redline said just what I was thinking, this looks like a Chinese copy, and a cheap one at that. If it is real its gonna confuse the hell outta the Chinese copycats. How will they be able to copy a crap design like this and make it even crappier. I'm sure they'll find a way. If this is real its time Steve either had a long chat with his design team or somebody had a long chat with him over allowing this to hit production. With iRiver making PMP's like the stunningly designed Spinn and direct class competitors from Meizu with the M6 SL this is even worse. This is the Motorola ROKR of the flash mp3 world IMO.

I rather like it.

I really hope for Apple's sake this isn't the design they are after as although the Touch and iPhone have the non-audiophile market in their grasp the nano has hundreds of other players lined up against it in a much more cut-throat sector of the market, some of which are very good. And with no touchscreen (and probably no wifi) like its big broher and christmas arriving soon it could be a hard sell for even the masters of hype.
