I'm so thrilled with the functionality of my new iPod Classic, and my wife has always complained about the user-unfriendliness of her Sandisk Sansa e270 6 GB mp3 player, that I surprised her for the holidays with a new iPod Nano 8 GB.

More photos after the break...

The contents (pictured above) include the iPod earphones, a USB sync cord, a small getting started guide, the Nano, and a universal dock adapter.

Below is the rear.  It has the same mirror finish as its big bro, the iPod Classic:

You can see my camera in the reflection of the photo above.

How does it look next to the iPod Classic and the Sansa e270 its replacing?

How thin is it?

The Nano, on the right, has its headphone jack, hold switch and connector on the bottom side.

The Classic has its hold switch and headphone jack on the top side.

The Nano is tiny!

I'll post a review very soon.  Until then, keep rockin'.
