Well, iPod nano 7:th gen got an update. Doesn't seem to have changed anything except some bug-fixes. Do you think it's perhaps a "pre-update" before something bigger comes? It would be nice to have an iOS 7/8 interface on it too :)

That would be awesome. I honestly thought that there would be never an update again after TWO YEARS!!!
 
Can't wait for an option to sync Apple Music files to a friggin APPLE Nano!
 
What's confusing me is that Apple insider posted the update (1.0.4) a few days ago, but my Nano (new one from this July) was updated to 1.1.1. I wonder why they would run different software.
 
I was hoping this update would fix the Restore/Update bug with El Cap that I have had with my nano and a friend's nano I tried to restore. Every time I do either in El Cap, iTunes beachballs before it asks for my Admin password, then force quits itself. EVERY time. I ended up having to borrow a Yosemite machine to update my nano to 1.0.4.

I hope so. I love my iPod nano, its a great little music player for the gym because my Shuffle is a too small to hold a decent chunk of my music, but the nano's 16GB is just enough.

I don't see that happening due to the record labels. Theoretically, someone could sync all their Apple Music music to their nano then never sync it to iTunes again and hold on to 16GB of music for free. It's horrible to do, yes, but people would do it unfortunately ruining it for the rest of us.

That's very strange. My 2013 Rev Space Gray updated to 1.0.4.
 
I really want A iOS 7 look. It'd be really cool and maybe people would pay more attention to it.

I don't. A black music player is much nicer than stark white and thin fonts on a non-retina screen of this size will suck. I like the bold fonts and contrast, two elements that Apple has given up with on iOS and OS X.

Plus, when Apple redesigns their software, they like to to slow it way down. I don't want my iPod lagging like every iOS device I own.
