models, little speaks volumes.

Brighter
Display

Newly
Redesigned

more beautiful.

Features Overview Apple iPod Nano
4GB / 8GB ( 3rd Generation)
An anodized aluminum top and polished
stainless steel back. Five eye-catching colors. A larger, brighter
display with the most pixels per inch of any Apple display, ever.
iPod nano stirs up visual effects from the outside in.

And it’ll wow you for hours. Play up
to 5 hours of video or up to 24 hours of audio on a single charge.1
All that staying power and a wafer-thin, 6.5-mm profile makes iPod
nano one small big attraction.
Cover Flow
If a picture says a thousand words, think of what all the album art
in your collection might say. With Cover Flow on iPod nano, you can
flip through your music to find the album you want to hear. Use the
Click Wheel to browse music by album cover, then select an album to
flip it over and see the track list.

Music
Use the Click Wheel to adjust volume, navigate songs, browse in
Cover Flow, or explore the Music menu by playlist, artist, album,
song, genre, composer, and more. Want to mix things up? Click
Shuffle Songs. iPod nano makes your music look as good as it sounds,
thanks to its bright color display.
Movies
Buy movies from the iTunes Store and you can sync them to your iPod
nano to watch anywhere, anytime. Up to 5 hours of video playback
means you can watch two movies back to back.1 And for your viewing
pleasure, the 320-by-240-pixel display — with a whopping 204 pixels
per inch — is 65 percent brighter than before.
TV Shows
There’s always something good on iPod nano. Browse thousands of
episodes of your favorite TV shows on the iTunes Store, buy them for
just $1.99 each, then sync them to your iPod nano. Watch last
night’s episodes this morning, or buy a whole TV series and play a
pocket-size marathon.
Podcasts
The iTunes Store features thousands of free video and audio podcasts,
including indie favorites and offerings from such big names as ABC
News, Comedy Central, ESPN, PBS, NPR, and many more. Browse and
subscribe to podcasts, then sync them to your iPod nano. You can
even play video podcasts on TV using an optional Apple component or
composite AV cable.
Audiobooks
The digital shelves of the iTunes Store are stocked with thousands
of audiobooks — including exclusives like the entire Harry Potter
series — so you can catch up on your reading wherever iPod nano
takes you. iPod nano even recognizes where you left off reading and
bookmarks your place.
Games
Put hours of fun at your fingertips. iPod nano comes with three
games — Vortex, iQuiz, and Klondike — and you can download more from
the iTunes Store for $4.99 each. All iPod games are designed
specifically for the iPod interface. And all of them look great on
the 2-inch color display.
Photos
iPod nano holds up to 7,000 photos you can sync from your Mac or PC
via iTunes. Use the Click Wheel to scroll through photo thumbnails.
To see a photo full screen, click the center button. You can even
view your photo slideshows — complete with music and transitions —
on a TV using an optional Apple component or composite AV cable.
Extras
Calendars, contacts, and a screen lock appear in the Extras menu,
along with a few more handy items. Take the world clock, for
example. Spin the Click Wheel to choose different clocks for cities
all over the world. For workouts, use the built-in stopwatch to log
your best times.
