Apple just released the Apple Nano. With 2GB (500 songs) and 4GB (1,000 songs) models starting at $199, the pencil-thin iPod nano packs the entire iPod experience into an impossibly small design. Only 3.5 x 1.6 x 0.27 inches and 1.5 ounces. It can hold up to 25,000 photos.

I’m surprised Apple have not signed up Robin Williams as spokesman for the Nano, who played the popular extra-terrestrial named Mork in the TV series Mork and Mindy in the early 80’s. It would have been perfect, “Nano Nano!” Sorry, I couldn’t resist. View a couple of pictures of the Nano from Apple and Binary Bonsai

A version described as release candidate is usually the same as a final version that is made available for users to test and discover any remaining bugs. The current version is 1.0.5.
