The just-announced iPod Nano revision returns the line to its classic form-factor while keeping the 3G's widescreen - now a tallscreen. An accelerometer detects orientation changes and updates the display, just like in the iPod touch, as well as when the player is shaken, which triggers the playlist to be shuffled, similar to the control scheme of the Sandisk Shaker. Its software supports the new Genius playlist-creating functions just introduced in iTunes 8.  The new nanos will be available in $149 8GB and $199 16GB models (the largest yet in the Nano line).
