Apple iPod nano 1GB
Apple just announced a new 1GB version of the iPod nano, making for 3 nano models all together - at capacities of 1 2 and 4GB. Priced at $149 , $199 and $249 respectively.
The halfGB and 1GB Shuffle models are repriced to $69 and $99. They must be getting ready to intro new models.
Today’s declines in Samsung and Toshiba share prices on Asian markets were attributed to this move by Apple. Dell’s recent ditching of it’s hdd-based Digital Jukebox MP3 players has also been attributed to/blamed on the strength of the iPod brand.
Apple might be trying for a triple-digit market share and seemingly to bait the antitrust mavens at the DOJ.
