Apple iPod nano

Today Apple released the new iPod nano, which comes in black as well as white, and in 2 GB and 4 GB versions. It also has a color screen and a clickwheel.

Here’s one thing to note, from a review:

Not Quite a Full-Grown iPod

Although the iPod nano can display pictures and slideshows like today’s color iPods, it doesn’t have all the capabilities of these iPods. For example, you’ll find no TV Out commands in its Slideshow Settings window because it can’t project pictures to an attached television. Also, it doesn’t work with Apple’s iPod Camera

Connector or Belkin’s Media Reader, which means you can’t upload pictures to it. And although the Diagnostic Screen shows a LineIn test, current iPod microphones require a connection to the Remote Control port as well, which is missing on the nano.

Will I be getting one? Probably not. I’m happy with my Creative MuVo N200, and I recommend it to anyone who wants line-in, a built-in microphone, FM radio, and FM recording. In addition, I’m saving up for those Intel PowerBooks :)

How to Upload Pictures to the iPod nano

It has to be done in iTunes, rather than dragging and dropping through the Windows interface. Go to Preferences -> Photos. Your iPod needs to be plugged in. From there, you can select which photos to synchronize.

how do i upload pics to my ipod nano? pls help

 

Aye shiet.
This nano is crazyy yo.
I jus found this site and it helped me do the whole picture upload thing.
I love itt.
I just dont know how to play the slide show..
haha…
shucks.
Aiiight.

 

I’m just about to purchase a Creative N200 and I was wondering if you’ve ever tried to record your professor in a class? Creative.com says that it’s capable of recording lectures, but I’ve read other reviews that claim the mic must be close to the source. I’m just trying to figure out how close I need to be to my professor for this to work. Thanks!

p.s. In case you’re wondering how I got here, Google sent me because of a search string involving the N200 and a post concerning Professor Ko Honda.

 

Can you recommend a microphone or voice recorder that is compatible with the nano?
