4G iPod Nano spied on web

Apple's fourth-gen iPod Nano has surfaced on the web, well ahead of next week's anticipated announcement of the product.

Online business-oriented market, Alibaba, lists a screen-protector product for the new music player:

iPod Nano 4G

Apple's 4G iPod Nano

It's worth noting the device alleged to the 4G Nano matches pics that appeared around the web a week or so back, so it's a sure as mustard this is the what the new version of the player will look like.

It also matches the look of new iPod cases spotted at last week's IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin.

Alibaba also refers to a similar accessory for the "iPod Touch 2", though the photo used appears identical to the first-generation Touch.

meh

Prefer the current design tbh. This new one looks too feminine, and seems to be forgetting what "nano" actually refers to.

U2

indeed, hard to take someone serious how as part of the U2 band has a share in a $800 million property empire + other assets, comes asking me for money to help solve the world problems.... maybe if they liquidated their assets that would feed a lot of hungry folks, or heat a lot of old folks homes? An this is a guy who flew his hat first class from the UK to italy for gig .... what a ****

Oh bugger ...

If it turns out that the pictures are real, and they've gone back to the old iPod Mini styling, then it looks like my credit card is in for some more abuse, especially if they're doing it in chilli red[*] :-(

Bring on a 16Gb version ...

[*] - normally I wouldn't touch anything endorsed by that proseletysing twat from U2, but I love the colour of the Product Red iPods.
