honestly, I'm not sure why they even make these anymore....
Least expensive way to get into the iOS ecosystem. Kids and developer testing I hear about quite often.

Given this iPod really has more in common with the iPhone and iPad than it does with any other iPod that has ever existed, I think they should rename it to:

iPad Nano

It runs iOS but doesn't have cellular, and does way more than just music, just like all base-model iPads.

I wish they'd drop "Touch" from the name. There is only one iPod now.

Not everyone wants to pay lots of money on a plan every month. I have a prepaid phone that cost me $100 for 1000 minutes (last a long time) and I use wifi to connect my Touch.
