Summary: The Apple iPod nano is thin, beautiful and feature-filled, but 4GB may not be enough for many power users

Verdict: The new 8GB iPod nano is an amazing device. Super slim, and yet packed with brilliant features, you could do a lot worse than to buy one
Summary: What makes an iPod an iPod? It can't be the interface, because Creative says it designed that (natch). Could it be the clickwheel? Well the new iPod touch doesn't have one of them so it can't be that either, really. So what is it? The answer is a word tha
