1GB iPod nano sighted

Apple is reported to be considering launching a 1GB iPod nano in 2006, with Appleinsider saying that a possible future product has already been seen.

The Register reports that the screenless 1GB iPod shuffle has already proved very popular with the public since its launch, and Apple may look to capitalise on this with an iPod nano product that has the same storage capacity.

There are also reports that the 1GB shuffle has sold out in the US into January this year, but the wisdom of launching a 1GB iPod nano is a matter being debated.

The main concern being raised is the price, which would need to strike a balance between being sufficiently affordable and not competing with the iPod shuffle.

Website Trusted Reviews also warns of the danger of pricing getting too close to the 2GB iPod nano.

The iPod nano and iPod shuffle have proved the two most popular products in the iPod range so far this Christmas season. The shuffle is, of course, smaller and cheaper than other iPods, making it an obvious choice for Christmas presents.
