Apple recalls first iPod Nanos over battery flaw

"Will it be a new Nano 1G or a more recent model? Apple didn't say"

The uncertainty... At least it's not that horribly designed large old square Nano (2nd or 3rd gen?), the new Nanos are min. 8 GB and my 1st gen is 4 GB.

BUT, my Nano can sync with MediaMonkey and pretty much any other music library out there. Newer iPods require, as far as I know, that godawful iTunes installed in order to sync. Even if you can sync using other applications, you need some components from iTunes - which also means QuickTime, Bonjour, MDNS-service, mobile device support, iTunes helper... oh, for the love of Jobs!

Oh, and mine appears to be recalled...

"who's still got and even using a player from 3 years ago, never mind six?"

Guilty.

Half an hour, twice every weekday, going to/from work on my bike, my 1st gen Nano feeds my ear canals.

I've enjoyed that show ages ago. Remember anything more specific about that sketch? :-)
