Tiny iPod

While it’s nothing new functionality-wise, the iPod nano is certainly one of the slimmest music players I’ve ever seen. In fact, it reminds me of a wee, premium chocolate bar.

I still kind of want one, although I could see using the thing becoming a problem for anyone with large hands. (Like, for instance, Shaq.)

An iPod question for any of you experts out there: How do I access my “other” space? I have the 4GB nano and I filled it to capacity today. Now I’m noticing that 83.5 MB is tied up in “other”! (Started out at 83.7 and I disabled the display of album artwork and it went down.) That could hold at least another complete album, so I kind of want to delete it. No games or album artwork stored on there, so I haven’t a clue what it could be. Paul or Ryan, do either of you have iPods?

I do. My other space on a 30GB is 340MB, for reference; I assume that stores things such as the artwork and operating system along with games, notes, etc. Not sure how or if that usage can be minimized.

What is this then?
