Are you incapable of looking up a product spec sheet yourself? Is it that there are too many big words for you to understand it?
What battery issues are you referring to? I have a previous generation Nano, lasts nearly 3 business days non-stop, same with a much older iPod 60GB version, and my iPhone lasts for two business days of non-stop use (yes, I can burn it up faster if I leave bluetooth and wireless running 24/7 but I turn those off when I don't need them, and I have run the battery down even faster taking lots of photos, making lots of calls and doing lots of browsing in a short period of time, but, that's the way batteries work.
I think your conspiratorial persecution complex needs to be given a rest. It was a product launch, not a "cater to the quibbling nabobs of negativity" event.
as bad as this might sound, i really like listening to the radio. i like my KQED and KOIT (shut it) and 92.7. i need someone else to program my music and podcasts for me, and radio does that.
that is to say, this is a great ipod for old people. i look forward to buying one soon.
I really like the idea of a pedometer. I used one in a trial and ended up walking a lot more (I already walk and bike a lot) and shed extra pounds. The trial ended, I gave back the pedometer, and I've missed it since. Maybe the iPod nano will do.
steve looks deathly gaunt. 420 is the answer.
Dude, Steve. FORGET the iPod. It's all about the iPhone now.
Is the camera 3 megapixels, or the same crap available elsewhere?
Does the battery capacity suck any less prodigiously than previous Apple products?
I think they're not addressing these questions for a reason.

Short version: Hush and enjoy your Zune.
who the fuck is "we"?
certainly not you.
lacking wit and accuracy, in one short clumsy jab.
you're slipping.
People listen to FM radio?
KQED 88.5 FM!
I guess I'm a bad leftist - I stopped listening to KQED some time ago. Now, I just ignore the outside world in the hopes it will go away.
I must be alone in thinking that the rectangle shape is not aesthetically please. I prefer the square shape of the 3G.
FM radio? really? for the folks who haven't learned how to download a podcast or is it for folks who really enjoy crappy music?

Not ragging on you at all re: radio, but do you use Pandora?
i do. but i've always wanted my ipod to have FM radio capabilities. i need my lite rock/less talk when my play lists get boring.
Brock, I hate to break it to you, but you can buy a perfectly good radio for $10.
Think of all the money you can save -- and all the crackwhore BJs that will get you.
KPOO. FM 89.5- it rules. Please don't give up on radio entirely. Good night.
One thing I noted is that they dropped the price $20.

Holy shit! I missed the word "pedometer". I take it back, I would buy this.
oooohh FM tuner on an multimedia device? ppfft.. talk about a feature that is 3+ yrs old. Thanks @pple!
