New iPod Nano

I guess the new look for iPods are the curved backs like the new iPhone and the second generation of the iPod touch. It's the same dimensions as the second generation of the Nano but yet a little thinner because of its back. This Nano though has a font change option that allows you to change it for anyone if they have trouble reading it or something. It has all the features of last years model like music, videos, podcast playback, photos, games, etc., but this model has a new feature called genius. That lets you create an instant 25-song play lists based around the musical characteristics of a single song. Another interesting thing about this iPod is, like the iPhone and iPod touch, it has a tilt sensor. You can do some cool tricks like when you shake it, it turns the iPod into to shuffle mode but it is adjusts so that if you are running or something it doesn't do anything. If you would like, you can turn off the tilt sensor. Though all this sounds good there are some cons about the new iPod. It does have better speed and usability but the sound and battery life haven't upgraded really. Still, it's cool :D
