One item we missed reporting on last week was the release of the 1.0.3 iPod Nano update for the 4th generation iPod Nanos. The list of fixes and changes include (via TUAW):
- Support for Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic - Support for Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic - Fixed instability issues when using Nike + iPod Sport Kit - Added a setting to turn off Cover Flow when rotating iPod nano and a Cover Flow menu item under the Music menu - When Shuffle setting is set to Songs, pressing play on a song in saved Genius playlist will now follow the Shuffle setting - After playing a slideshow with TV out, Cover Flow album art is no longer distorted - Waking iPod nano after hibernating no longer distorts photos - Other minor bug fixes
We've heard hints suggesting that Apple's new In-Ear headphones will be shipping soon.
This software update should appear when connecting your 4th generation iPod nano to iTunes.
