This Is Genius
Control your Genius. Or leave it to its own devices. Either way,
Genius explores your library and finds songs that go great
together.
Genius Playlists
Say you have one song you really love and want to hear other
tracks that go great with it. A few clicks on iPod nano, and
Genius uses that song to find other songs in your library and
makes a Genius playlist for you. You can listen to the playlist
right away, save it for later, or even refresh and give it
another go. Count on Genius to create combinations you wouldn't
have thought of yourself.
Genius Mixes
Now there's another great way to get a customized set of songs on
iPod nano--have Genius do all the work. Introducing Genius Mixes.
All you do is sync your iPod nano to iTunes, and Genius
automatically searches your library and finds songs that sound
great together to create up to 12 Genius Mixes. These mixes are
like channels programmed entirely with your music. It's a great
way to rediscover songs you haven't listened to in forever, and
some you even forgot you had.
Go with the Cover Flow
View your album art in Cover Flow for a faster way to find the
song you want to hear. Or just press and hold the center button
to flip the album cover art over so you can see the songs. When
you find the right song, press the center button to add it to
your on-the-go playlist.
Shake to Shuffle Your Music
Hear songs in a totally random way. Just turn on Shake to
Shuffle, then give iPod nano a shake and it shuffles to a
different song in your music library. You never know what iPod
nano will spin for you next.
Don't Just Listen to the Radio, Pause it
and Tag it, Too
The new FM tuner lets you see the names of songs and artists. And
two amazing features--iTunes Tagging and Live Pause--make
listening to the radio nothing like listening to the radio.
FM Radio--it Gives You Yet Another Way to Rock
There's always something great on the FM dial. And now the FM
tuner lets you hear your favorite morning shows on your commute
and discover new music while you work out. It even shows you what
and who you're listening to.1
With Live Pause, You'll Never Miss a Beat
Say you need to take a quick break from listening to your
favorite radio station. iPod nano lets you pause it with a click.
Another click and you're listening to your station again. You can
even rewind as far back as 15 minutes, then fast-forward to catch
up to the live broadcast.
iTunes Tagging--the New-Fashioned Way to Discover
Music
It's quite a dilemma: You're listening to the radio and you hear
a song you like, but when you go to iTunes, you can't remember
the name or even who sings it. Enter iTunes Tagging. Now, you can
use the Click Wheel on iPod nano to tag the song. iTunes creates
a list of all your tagged songs so you can easily preview or
purchase them when you sync iPod nano to iTunes.
VoiceOver--the Talk of the Music
World
VoiceOver tells you the title and artist of the songs you listen
to. And does it so seamlessly, you'll be surprised at how
brilliant it is.
Let's Talk VoiceOver
What if you're listening to a song and want to know the title or
the artist? Just use the Click Wheel or the controls on the
optional Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic and VoiceOver tells
you the song name and who's performing it without interrupting
your music. So you're never distracted from your ride or run by
looking down at your screen.
The nano now includes an FM radio with iTunes Tagging and Live Pause functions. |
Capture a thought, a reminder, a class lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos. |
The new Pedometer counts every step you take. Or add Nike+ shoes and a Nike + iPod Sport Kit for the perfect workout partner. |
How it Works
You'll notice how smoothly and easily VoiceOver works. A lot of
thought went into creating an iPod nano that not only talks, but
says the right things. It all begins with iTunes and its seamless
integration with iPod nano. First, iTunes reads your song
information, then uses the VoiceOver Kit to generate the
announcements for the songs, artists, and playlists. Just sync
your iPod nano to your computer and it really speaks to you.
It Speaks Multiple Languages
Your music library has songs from all over the world--a love song
from France, a bolero from Spain, a pop tune from Japan. Luckily,
VoiceOver speaks fluent song.
iTunes selects the language and best voice for your song titles and artist names. It looks at song data, like the title, artist, and album information, then applies intelligent algorithms to choose the right language. For example, iTunes recognizes the song "Ya Viene el Sol by Ozomatli as a Spanish song, so your iPod nano will automatically speak that song title and artist in Spanish. If you prefer to hear that information spoken in another language, you can change the designated VoiceOver language for that song in iTunes.
Hit the Ground Running--Or
Walking
With the Nike + iPod Sport Kit (sold separately) and a built-in
pedometer to help keep you motivated and track your fitness
progress, iPod nano makes working out less routine.
Step it up with the New Pedometer
You take your iPod nano with you everywhere. Why not use it to
stay fit? iPod nano now doubles as a Pedometer. It uses the
built-in accelerometer to keep track of your steps and help you
meet your fitness goals. You can create a daily step goal or set
it to Always On so it counts all the steps you take, all the
time. Which makes iPod nano the ideal exercise partner.
Rock and Run
Your shoes and your iPod nano team up to maximize your run. See
the minutes tick by. Watch the miles unfold. Hear real-time voice
feedback. All to your favorite music, including your chosen Power
Song--that one song that always gets you through the home
stretch.
Rock the Gym
Take Nike + iPod to the gym and minute by minute, mile by mile,
you're motivated by more than music. Connect your iPod nano to a
Nike + iPod compatible cardio machine. Record your pace, time,
and distance as you work out. With iPod nano, every trip to the
gym becomes a new challenge.
Sync
When you're finished, connect your iPod nano to your Mac or PC.
iTunes automatically sends your workout data to nikeplus.com.
Every workout and every run is there, ready for you to review.
Get pumped for your next run with recommended challenges, custom
training programs, and maps of new routes to try. Or share
motivation with runners across the world.
Note to Self: Voice Memos Are
Here
The built-in mic lets you capture a thought, a reminder, a class
lecture, or any audio recording you want with Voice Memos.
iTunes: Your Greatest
Hits
It's even easier to organize, browse, grow, and share your
digital music and video collection with the new iTunes. And now
you can save items with a wish list and enjoy iTunes
extras--bonus features on select albums and movies--like lyrics,
photos, interviews, and behind-the-scenes media.

Best Nano yet!Reviewed by Howie Rumjahn, 2010-03-07
These things just get better and better. I like my iPods light, because my job has me moving around a lot, not stationary at a desk. I keep it in my front shirt pocket and I don't even know it's there.
IPodReviewed by Paul M. Nimz, 2010-03-07
Got this to use in my car with an AUX input. The Ipod does not have enough volume output from the headphone jack to drive the head unit load enough to hear even when both are turned all the way up.
I Love My iPod!Reviewed by A. F. Williams, 2010-03-07
I love my iPod!. At first I was hesitant to purchase an iPod. Now that I have it, it's the best purchase that I've made. I'm so amazed how one could design such a sleek, paper thin piece of technology for every one to enjoy. Also, I take the iPod with me when I go out to walk and jog. Having an iPod makes exercising so much more enjoyable and fun.
GREAT PURCHASEReviewed by Margaux Paschke, 2010-03-06
This was purchased as a gift for my son but after borrowing it on
occasion, it looks like I will have to purchase one for myself. I
love all the features contained on this amazing little
product.
The size is amazing! It is slim and small enough to fit in any
pocket which makes it convenient for my son. The features he uses
the most? He watches video (easily purchased from iTunes or
transferred from pc), listens to music (again, easily purchased or
transferred) and takes videos and photos. This is great for keeping
him occupied while running errands or long car trips. The storage
of 8G is good for him but I will need to purchase bigger storage
capacity. He's not too happy with the included earphones but that's
what allowances are for.
The things we didn't like? The camera lens is located where you
would naturally hold it and the lens gets easily smudged. A bad
spot but fixed with a hard plastic case (the soft plastic
protective case does not work as well) that protects the unit from
damage and helps to make a slight height differential which keeps
the lens less smudged. However, the iTunes software is the most
irritating for me. It is free and easy to download and a great
option if you are looking for media software for your computer. I
am, however, very happy with what I already have on my system and
iTunes constantly tries to overtake my pc as the automatic default
player. ARRGGHHH. The constant pop ups are very annoying and I hate
having to change my settings back since the iTunes acceptance
button is sometimes pressed. We will be loading the iTunes onto the
family pc shortly to get around this nuisance. If you are a Mac
user or apple fan, this will not be a problem for you.
Overall, I love the great features packed into this tiny device. I
think it's reasonably priced when compared to the high cost of toys
today. My younger son wanted a Star Wars Vehicle ($109.99) which
might get what? 70 hours of play time? versus something for $25
more that should last years.
First iPodReviewed by Sheldon, 2010-03-06
I've had and purchased a few different MP3 players, but I've been
waiting for Apple to put a radio in the iPod and I'm glad I did.
This little thing is amazing, and I don't see how they got all this
stuff into such a small package. Games, video, photos, a radio
(yea), voice recorder and even music.
If you're like me and you've been waiting to buy an iPod the wait
is over, especially with Amazon's low prices. I also got the kit
with the wall charger and auto charger and that was worth it,
too.
Now I can listen to all my favorite music, play a game when I want
to kill some time and even catch the ballgame, all in one tiny
device.
