Rumors of a new, slimline Nano are as yet unconfirmed...

But rumors that I would cry a little are true. I looooooooved the new Nano design (below) so much: it's just so cute and square, and sleek. Why would Apple want to mess around with it?

Yet lots of other tech sites are saying that in order to fit in a bigger screen, the next generation of Apple's hugely popular player will be longer, more like a Zune.

But Microsoft have always been one step behind Apple on the MP3 player front, so I'm not sure why they would want to copy their design. I hear good things about the Zune, and it does look nice, but there's no denying it also looks Apple-inspired, so this seems like a very retroactive step.

I guess I should wait and see before I worry, but I just so want the new Nano to be gorgeous! (Oh, and yes, I know I'm living vicariously through Steve Jobs, but I see no problem with that...)

In other Nano rumor news, Shiny Shiny whets our appetites for a potenital iPhone Nano... and I don't know what to think about that!

Davin Peterson:

Everything is always iPod, but what about the Creative Zen? Creative invented the iPod interface, which Apple stole and now Creative is not recongized.

They just came out with a new ZEN X-Fi Wireless player. Their ZENs are better the iPod, as they offer more for less.
