Using it as an iPod, so far I will agree with you from playing with mine. But, it is going to be an awesome watch.
Now if that watchband will be delivered already....... It's been an hour away from me for the past 2 days.....
So, it's working now?
Got a tip for us?

It works when it isn't plugged in.

I finally received my Nano today! I'm guessing they screwed up the outgoing shipping processing/tracking because I received no notification from Apple this thing was coming. So, from start to finish:
Nov. 15th - request replacement from Apple
Feb. 29th - receive replacement from Apple
That's a whole lotta time, but excited to try this thing out. Whew. Good luck folks, be patient. I wasn't, but it will come!

So I call back today, because they said unit would **** in about 24 hours and I wanted to check in and see why I didn't get a notification of shipment.
Love the typo....!
For me, posted the package on 30th Jan, on 4th Feb online status updated from Step 1 (received) straight through to Step 3 (return pending) in one go. no delivery yet though! Fingers crossed times are improving....
My wife's first iPod was the original Nano, which she passed on to her mom a couple years ago. I filled out the online form for the replacement program around Thanksgiving and didn't get my padded envelope until just before Christmas. I sent it in to Apple and have been checking the status every couple days, but it's been stuck on Service Requested.
I called today to see if I could find out anything, and apparently Apple never got it as UPS' tracking system noted that they discarded an empty package. So now I have to wait a week or 2 for Apple to investigate. After that, I have no idea.

Naw I just got the cardboard box with foam and the little nano inside.
received today yup with just a box and a pod inside! not particularly very Apple but you can't beat the fact they replaced something I bought 6 years ago...regardless of the fact it could have caused a fire and killed me and my family!

Received mine last week. Although took almost 4 months since I dropped it at a AASP I really loved it when I received it. I admit I'll miss my first gen :-( I've run already and is pretty accurate ;-)
