Ipod
Nano MP3 Player
It's
a portable media player designed and marketed by Apple Inc.
The first generation model was introduced on September 7,
2005, and combines features of both the iPod shuffle and iPod
classic. It was intended to replace the iPod mini, which was
discontinued on the same day. The replacement of the mini
took Apple-related websites and the press completely by surprise
since, although there were rumors about a new flash memory-based
iPod, there was no prior notice of the popular mini being
discontinued.
Development
work on its design started only nine months before its launch
date. It uses flash memory, like the iPod shuffle, but with
a miniaturized version of the display screen and "click
wheel" found on the iPod classic. The screen also
shares the same resolution as the classic. The battery and
other internal parts were also reduced in size compared to
the mini.
Apple
updated it again on September 5, 2007 and made it available
the weekend following. The 3rd generation features a 2-inch
QVGA (320×240) screen and a shorter, wider, heavier
design, with new colors. New features include browsing
via Cover Flow, a new user interface, video playback, and
support for new iTunes Store games. Users must repurchase
games bought before a month prior to the debut of the new
iPod as they are not supported. It's available in a 4 GB version
coming only in silver, and an 8 GB version coming in silver,
turquoise, mint green, black, and Product Red. The battery
lasts for approx. 24 hours on audio playback and approx. 5
hours on video playback.
Combining
elements from the previous two generations, the third-generation
nano has an aluminum front plate and a chrome back plate.
It also sports a new minimalistic hold switch, similar to
the shuffle's power switch, which has been moved to the bottom
of the player. The 2 inch screen has the greatest pixel density
of any other Apple product and has the same resolution of
the 2.5 inch iPod classic's display.
On
October 6, 2007, Apple released a firmware update (1.0.2)
via iTunes that is said to improve Cover Flow, yield faster
menu navigation and fix the Video Out option. The update was
also released for the iPod Classic.
On
November 28, 2007, Apple released another firmware update
(1.0.3) via iTunes, which included unspecified bugfixes.
