    Definitely a must have for anyone that like a visual GUI and runs/walks/exercises.

    For $150 yes, now $79.99 that would be cool

    I think it's all about the price range. Choose the product that fits your budget.

    It's definitely not pointless.. People will buy it, especially people who will use it for fitness/exercise using the Nike+ app. Also the Bluetooth is a great feature. People can use it to play their music to a Bluetooth speaker either around the house or in the car. There is a market for it.

    this sounds like the ipod shuffle... no, really, if one is useless, it's the shuffle... but as other people have said, one chooses the product that fits their budget

    If I wanted a device that played music and had radio, I would probaby consider this iPod.

    I think this device could be interesting if someone creates a jailbreak for it. I mean someone could create an app like cydia on it and it could also install some sort of network manager and use a internet connection through bluetooth tethering. I'm not sure if that is actually possible but it would certainly make me pick up a nano if it was.

    Yes, I just got rid of my Shuffle and am getting the Nano. I love having a GUI because then I can pick and choose songs while running. I have tried running with a Touch before and it doesn't work for me at all. It's too heavy for higher speeds on a treadmill.

    The one Nano I will miss the most is the 3rd generation. I LOVED that one...have no idea why I decided to sell it, but this one that just came out sounds really good. I have a 5th gen, which I like, decided to pass on the 6th gen (Shuffle Touch? No thanks), and will be getting the 7th gen.
