Maybe some people want a smaller phone and Apple is addressing that. The quest for smaller devices isn't new, in general or with Apple. Look at the iPod Mini, Nano and Shuffle; the Mac Mini; the MacBook Air and so on. An iPhone Nano may not be what you want, or even very exciting, but maybe it's exactly what some customers do want.

The rumor sites seem to bat below .500, though. I'd rather that they just didn't bother. I don’t try to guess at all anymore about what Apple is doing. The rumor sites seem to bat below .500, though.
