iPod Nano
I still haven’t bought an MP3 player – I haven’t yet found that perfect player which balances size, features, capacity, and performance. That’s all changed now with the release of the iPod Nano! This device looks incredible – thinner than a pencil and only slightly longer than an iPod Shuffle, it has a beautiful colour screen and the device comes in standard iPod white as well as a sleek looking black. Maximum capacity is only 4GB but what do you expect from an MP3 player this small? The only issue I have with it at the moment is the price… The price listed on the US Apple website is $249.00 with free shipping – this converts to just over $350 NZD which I think is quite reasonable and definitely within my budget. On the NZ Apple website however, the price is $419.00 + $20 shipping bringing it to a total of $439 – almost $90 more expensive! Unfortunately the US site won’t ship internationally so I guess I’ll have to wait and see if the price will change at all over the next month or so.
