You can still reach the mini by fiddling with local applestores (UK store) and whatnot. I presume they'd at least sell the remaining stock, there must be some left.

Not really that much smaller. It's about half as thick as my regular ipod, and not significantly smaller along the other dimensions.


Ipod nano:

3.5 x 1.6 x 0.27

Old ipod:

4.1 x 2.4 x 0.63

hardly worthy of being called nano...

Looks like they've gotten rid of the mini ipod.

The iPod mini was significantly smaller than the regular ipod. This nano is even smaller than the mini.
But it seems that the mini is completely gone, as 6Gb is a rather nice amount of space.

Not gonna get through 60 gig of music unless you run round the world
with the 15GB of music in my iTunes library, plus the albums I physically own, i would feel uncomfortable with a 20GB iPod. I'm hoping to get a 40GB soon, to fit all my music comfortably plus the space to use it as a removable harddrive when I need.
so, when your library surpasses the 40GB mark, then what? 60GB? there isn't a player that i know of on the planet that can hold my entire library, so i don't see what the point is to try and carry it.

@ridda: 4GB Flash drive, 1.5 ounces, color screen - that's a ripoff? you're delusional.
i can't see my music library getting to that size anytime within worry. extrapolation places that point at about 2008ish

But that would mean that the nano is significantly smaller than the regular ipod and then some.

But the measurements I've posted indicate otherwise.

Because it's another overhyped and obsolete product from apple and this time it's a few mm smaller.
