Photo of the 4th Generation iPod Nano?


Alibaba, a B2B marketplace, has a photo (via Zollotech) of what appears to be the 4th generation iPod Nano that is expected to be released next week.

We can't be for sure if this represents a photo of the actual device, or simply a mockup based on circulating dimensions, but it does show what appears to be a dock connector on the bottom of the device. The image also correlates with all circulating rumors about the new iPod Nano.

Apple will be holding a special event on September 9th where the new iPod Nano is expected to be released.

I think that is undoubtedly what we are going to get.

It's not pretty though. Not particularly ugly, just not pretty. Mind you, I do like the form factor with the whole thing having a curve.

Also, FWIW, should the title not read 'Photo of the 4th Generation iPod Nano?'

Just looks like a 3rd gen nano that needs to go on a diet. How boring.

Looks like a mockup to me. The click wheel seems to be indented quite a lot and the click wheel is also out of proportion with the dock connector and headphone jack. Either that or this is going to be a large ipod nano!

I think that's a good call, and I really do think they look cool even if they look like the Gen 2 iPod Nanos. :apple:

Seriously, looks like a remote control. BTW I meant 2G nano, not 3. There's nothing wrong with having it look like the old nano, but then where's the innovation? It better be in the software.

I don't see a problem with the resemblance to the older models, I don't think there is a great deal more they can do with them really. They will sell well, as iPods always do.

I do however find it interesting that they would go back to the taller form factor after having changed it to short and fat. I think tall and thin sits better in your pocket. Personally I think I prefer the current model.

I like that look. It looks a little awkward at first, but I'd buy it. :D
