True to its name the 6th-generation Nano ($149) is Apple’s smallest yet, measuring an inch and a half square, and 0.35 inch thick. The most obvious change is that the Nano has ditched the scroll wheel navigation for a mini touch screen that measures 1.5 inches diagonally and produces 240-by-240 pixel resolution. This 6th-Gen iPod Nano has been completely redesigned with Multi-Touch — the same technology that makes iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch work so well. The screen is filled with iPhone-like icons that are arranged in sets of four, spread out across multiple home screens, similar to iOS devices, such as the iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. There’s a clip on the back (similar to the iPod Shuffle), a variety of seven colors (silver, grey, blue, orange, pink, green, and red), and two capacities, 8GB ($149) and 16GB ($179). Battery life is rated at 24 hours of music playback, which is remarkable for its size. See more images and watch the new Apple iPod Nano 6th generation commercial after the jump!
