I had the same reaction I’ve seen from many people online to the first pictures I saw of the iPod Nano. It looked like a “fat” Nano, because its aspect ratio is so different from its predecessor’s. Then I saw the Nanos in the Apple Store today and realized they should be called the miniscule Nano. The new Nano is absurdly small and thin. Even more than the iPhone, it feels like it arrived from the future. Given the size of the Nano, I don’t really see there being a market for the iPod Shuffle any more.
