Well, a lot of people are grumbling about what was missing from Tuesday's iPod event, such as a Beatles music catalog, a tablet computer or an iPod Touch with a built-in camera.
First and foremost, Steve Jobs was there. He hasn't been seen for quite a long time so it was nice to see him back in front of the media. He's still looking a bit thin, but he's back and that's what's important.
I'm not personally in the market for a new iPod. I purchased a Touch model early this year to use on a trip to stay in contact while I was away. It beat the heck out of dragging my 17" laptop. Having said that, I'm really liking the Nano with the video camera.
A major part of what I do is video. I use two cameras at many events, one of which is mounted to a stationary object or a ceiling. I envision using one of these new Nanos for this purpose, although it would be in a limited fashion.
What is really nice about the video feature on the Nano is simply being able to quickly shoot and share video to family and friends. No tape, no logging and capturing.
It's looking good for the iPod. I think Apple is going to sell a lot of Nanos just because of the video feature.
