The most popular Apple product right now is the iPod Nano. The iPod Nano is much smaller than the standard iPod, but has almost all of the same capabilities. There are two generations of the iPod Nano. Most people prefer the iPod Nano 2nd gen because the casing is more durable and less prone to scratching. The first iPod Nano was quite popular, except that it was so easy to get scratched. So Apple went back to the designing board and developed the new casing. The iPod Nano was released with little notice. The designing only took 9 months before being introduced into the Apple iPod family. 

The iPod Nano is much smaller than the rest of the iPod family, save for the iPod shuffle. The screen on the iPod Nano is tiny, but it is color and has a surprisingly high resolution. Because the screen is so clear, it is said to be able to have more characters in one line than the iPod Mini. The screen is no bigger than a postage stamp, but is still able to portray the album art of the current song that is playing.
