Wow! How innovative. They are coming out with a smaller phone with fewer options. Almost as innovative as the name. Iphone, Iphone nano, and Iphone shuffle. uh oh wait…

Apple's recent release of the iPhone software development kit is a genius idea for them to gain market share. I am a software engineer who has always used Windows computers both at home and at work. I am now planning on buying a Mac because it is required to develop software for the iPhone. There are many other software developers in the same boat. When software developers start using the Mac for software development, you'll start seeing more software written for the Mac. Once that happens, the Mac will continue to gain more and more market share from Microsoft. Absolute genius. Who would have thought that a phone could be the thing Apple needed to start gobbling up the operating system market too?

An Iphone Nano would be nice, it would become the latest fashion statement at school when all the high schoolers can finally afford to own one.

wow…i think making it a bit smaller and thinner is a fantastic idea, as long as it dosen,t take away from the functionality. i hope people don't look at that pic of the iphone shuffle and think cool.

The only way a shuffle iPhone makes any sense is if it:

a) Synchronizes only names and phone numbers from an external source (Outlook or a custom-built app like the Palm desktop)

b) Recognizes voice commands (like LG's 'Call Someone' or 'Digit Dial' spoken commands)

c) Is a phone roughly the size and form factor of a Bluetooth headset.

That way, you don't need to have an interface for dialing and, since phone number and user data is very tiny, it wouldn't require much memory to store thousands of phone numbers.

I think all of the manufacturers are missing out on this area. I don't want my phone to be a camera, MP3 player, web browser, book reader, etc. I just want it to be a phone!

First manufacturer to do this wins my support!

That's what I want, a phone that dials numbers randomly, brilliant!

Hello? Who is this? You called me. I know, but I have the phone set on random, so I don't know who I'm calling.

Hey,

I for one, wouldn't mind a nanoPhone that perfectly syncs my Address Book, Calendar, iPhotos and iTunes.

I could care less about the wifi, GPS and Safari and the dopey camera.

Just add a phone to the iPod nano and I'll be happy. (Oh yea,sell it to Verizon too!
