Out of the Woods

Apple has announced their newest digital media player, the iPod Nano. A cross between the Shuffle and the Mini (which appears to be discontinued since I can’t find it on their site), the Nano sports 2 or 4 GB of memory, a color screen, and a form factor so slim it just begs to be snapped in half in your back pocket. Of course, you still need iTunes to manage its content, and it uses Apple’s DRM-laden AAC format. It’s quite sexy, but I’ll stick to MP3s on my SanDisk player so I can simply drag and drop files to it.
