Microsoft isn"t the only one planning to push its MP3 player for Valentine"s Day; Apple has brought pink to the iPod nano - available immediately in an 8GB model for $199. As expected, everything else is the same as all 3rd generation iPod Nanos: 320-by-240-resolution two-inch display, Cover Flow, reportedly 24 hours of audio playback or five hours of video playback, and so on, all encased in a 6.5 mm thin all-metal design made with anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel. In case you"ve forgotten, the 8GB model is also available in silver, black, blue, green and a (PRODUCT) RED special edition. The 4GB model is still only available in silver. All iPod nano models include earbud headphones, a USB to 30-pin cable and a Universal Dock Connector.
"Customers are going to love the gorgeous new pink iPod nano. The pink iPod nano is perfect for people who want a great new color this spring, or who are searching for a special Valentine"s Day gift," said Greg Joswiak, Apple"s vice president of Worldwide iPod Product Marketing.
