But my 2nd-gen Nano was

Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the Hp laptop battery

The same could not be said for the battery, Lightning connector, or volume controls, all of which are soldered to the logic board. Pulling out the logic board also removes the battery, button cable, Lightning connector, and headphone jack.

sorry, I don't get it... first of all, a touch screen for what exactly? listening to music, FM radio and watching movies, video podcasts on the "really small big screen" on-the-go. No apps, no airplay, no internet browsing (wouldn't make sense on that small screen anyways), no camera. Ok, I understand, it's for music mainly, but for this purpose I'd prefer a Shuffle with more storage and more battery such as Hp F4098A battery, Hp F4809A battery, Hp F4812A battery, compaq 319411-001 battery, Compaq Presario 2100 battery(compaq 2100 battery), Compaq Presario 2500 battery(compaq 2500 battery), Compaq Presario NX9010 battery, Compaq Presario NX9000 battery, HP Compaq 104724-001 Battery, HP Compaq 267865-001 Battery life. And the Home button is totally unnecessary. They could have used a gesture for returning to the home screen, making use of the touch screen.

Actually I wanted to buy the 5th-gen, that seemed better for many reasons. But my 2nd-gen Nano was still working perfectly that time and when started having issues, it was too late. The last (6th-gen) I also disliked, exactly because of the gestures on a tiny screen and with that UI. I agree with you on that, I just thought this new one has a bigger screen... well, I wouldn't choose it anyway, it doesn't offer much more than the Shuffle (except* the ability of pausing the radio which would have been a great feature 10 years ago, not now)... I'd buy either a Shuffle (if there were with min. 4GB) or an iPod Touch.

I haven't seen it yet in real, only in pictures, but it's funny that the device seemed bigger in the first picts during the announcement (and that's why less interesting with hardly any of the features of the Touch). Then I saw it on a photo with a hand holding it, what shows the real size (I didn't look up the dimensions in the specs first). so, I meant the new one has a bigger screen than the last one, less awkward for gestures.

Are there any other devices that even let you do that? Or rewind? Or save song names to purchase them later? Sound like some great features to me.

Radio won't ever die. Television didn't kill it, and neither will the Internet. We're seeing radio boom via the Internet, even.

I don't say radio will die, it's just that you can find the programs recorded, on the site of the radio station if you missed it or part of it. I'm not saying it's not a good feature, I'm just saying it's a little bit late IMO. And for teenagers (this nano is targeted mostly to them), the programs they listen to, won't matter too much.
