As above. A neat piece of technology but overpriced.

1. In-ear phones too large to fit in my ears hence they keep dropping out and necessitating the purchase of
an additional pair of headphones - unnecessary expense!
2. User Manual not overly helpful. Had a tough time getting started.

It's very easy to use, it's got a very good battery life, the sound is a pretty good quality (as you'd expect all apple ipods to be, for their prices...). It's got some pretty good features, though a couple are a little pointless in my views. The screen is a good size for the nano and it's very clear and easy to see.
-
The design could be a little better, I've never been keen on the ipod look in general. It could have come with some better earphones, and I think the price is still a little high..

The new nano has a new feature, which allows you to shuffle songs by shaking it, but the technology has some way to go. In fact, you sort of turn it upside down and then smack it upright quickly, and that usually does it, but on the other hand it will shuffle in the middle of a song or album because it is jostled a bit. I imagine it's possible to turn this feature off, if I get around to it.
It's small and sleek, but (aside from the new design) it's not much different from the nano it replaced.
-
The battery life is shockingly short. I walk to and from class each day (several miles) and the battery can barely take it and often loses charge on the way home. For the cost of these extravagant little items, I would expect a slightly longer battery life.
