iPod Nano

I am excited about the new iPod nanos announced today by Apple. I would like to get me the 2GB nano which is priced to sell for $149. I think I'll require one of those armbands so that I can wear it to the gym. And maybe one of those FM tuners, which allows you to listen to FM radio on the iPod.

But the practical person I am :-), I think I'll wait until these appear on Amazon, which usually prices them lower. It's still a toss-up between the Creative Zen V Plus (which still hasn't appeared in US Stores) and the iPod nano. The Creative Zen has the FM recording feature that allows you to record radio shows, which I think is a very useful feature. The downside is their poor support for podcasts; in comparison iTunes makes subscribing and syncing to podcasts a breeze.

I think I'll wait another month before deciding what to buy.
