Ha ha, thanks for the offer, but I meant in general terms. As someone currently working in retail, I know that in the UK there is a shortage of 4GB nanos. We have had very few to sell recently, (for every 4Gb we have had, we have had at least 10 2GB nanos), and I know there are lots that are trying to get hold of them.Yvan256 said:Our local Future Shop has plenty of 4GB iPod nanos (at least they had, 4 days ago). Maybe I can help your friend?
P.S.: email me directly if your friend is interested, and be sure to have a PayPal account to transfer the money. I'm only asking for the price of the nano + taxes + shipping. I'll take care of packaging (plenty of bubble wrap left from my other eBay purchases).

Lacero said:Apple should have stuck to the mini design for the nano. Upgrade the mini to flash memory and a color screen. Fill up the spaced saved for a larger battery that would give us 40+ hours or more. That would have been nicer than the scratch-prone nano and their breaking screens.

Did Apple underestimate the number of shuffles in anticipation of clearing out stock for new shuffles to arrive at MWSF 06? I'd say. Smaller, lighter shuffles to debut in new colors, including black.
Stocks of shuffles and iPod nanos are all constrained. Maybe Apple should not have discontinued the minis so prematurely as some units are fetching $350 or more on eBay.

Unless of course the 2 GB nano is retired as well... Or they introduce the iPod pico to replace them both....hyperpasta said:A 2GB shuffle won't happen, since it will cut nano sales.

They had both Shuffles at my local retail store on Thursday. No 4G nanos to be found though...mproud said:Check in with your Apple Retail Stores. Depending on how lucky you are, you just might be able to score one.
I did hear about an engraving option, but it doesn't seem to be available at the moment. Not sure which countries it was restricted to though.paddy said:as far as I know you cant engrave an iPod shuffle, at least not on Apples Irish store

Just curious.
