Apple Announces Pink iPod nano

Pink iPod on page one?
Wow, must be a slow day.

Why? Because it doesn't suit you? No matter what way you dice it, this is a new product. More importantly, it is a new Apple product and this is, after all, an Apple-oriented website.

In any case, I think it's great. Whilst I will probably refrain from purchasing one for myself, it's good to see that they are listening to customers who want more choice.

If my lady friend didn't already have an iPod touch, she would likely be all over this.

New color ..... Not a new product, no new functionality, just a color.
 
Well after learning the hard way (buying other pink phones, etc), this is the wrong pink color for my wife. She likes the "soft" pink, not the magenta pink color like this Nano. Darn, would have been a great gift.
 
Since we are already off topic, I have noticed that all threads related to MBP or not have people asking for an update to the MBP. Man I hope Apple does something soon or we are going to have riots. And no I don't have or want a MBP, just wanted to document my observations.

Er, no. It's just a new color. By your logic we should also throw up each sub-point release of iTunes/iPhoto/etc. on the front page too.

Not really my colour but I can see this being a hit on valentines day, after all, love doesn't really come to mind with the (red) (AIDS) player.

No, it's the first time there has been a pink 3G nano. It is a new product.

Not that I would see anything wrong with having software updates on the front page.

unless this is the first 3G nano, then it's just a new color... it is the EXACT same thing as all of the other 3G nanos, only with pink metal on the outside. not a new product, meaning not the first 3G nano, just a new color for the 3G nano. who cares if it's on the front page, honestly, all the front page is is a few pictorial links and the nav bar...
 
I had this conversation with my wife a week ago.

Wife: "Have you seen the new pink iPod Nano?"

Me: "Um, there's isn't a pink iPod Nano."

Wife: "Yes there is. Someone at work had one and showed it to me. I really want one. It looks nice."

Me: "No, dear. There isn't a pink iPod Nano. They must have had a skin on it."

Wife: "No, there wasn't a sleeve on it or anything. It was a pink one."

Me: (laughing.) "Okay, sweetie, but Apple doesn't make that so maybe it was a third party paint job or something. And you're sure it was one of the newer wide iPod Nanos, the ones that can play video?"

Wife: Yes. And it was pink.

I left that conversation convinced my wife was confusing what she saw for something else, but now this news today. I'm going to have to find out who exactly she was talking to at her workplace and why they apparently had an actual pink iPod Nano a week ahead of this announcement. :confused:

I agree that if they did some combination with Breast Cancer or some other charity that would of been great. I cannot see this being as popular as the red one but I like that they are meeting some demands of customers.

Apple did do that with the last pink Nano - it was only through Target. It was the Nano, a pink iTunes $15 card, and some other thing in the package to help the Breast Cancer organization.

Uh, wow. That was random/unexpected. I wish they'd bring back the blue & green too.

They already have blue and green. Do you mean dark blue and dark green?

I have to say, I'm not crazy about any of the colors, it would be nice to have at least one dark color (besides black) instead of all pastels. Even the red one should be more red, it looks more on the pinkish side right now.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good nano case? I just got the iSkin, and it's super lame, I need to take it back and try something else.

I bet this'll count as Apple's iPod update for the year. :rolleyes:

Apple always updates iPods in the fall, it hasn't been long at all since the last batch of major updates (october?).

btw. a pink metallic Macbook (not necessarily Pro) would sell like hot cakes.[/QUOTE]

But it would also be gross.:rolleyes:
