Nano is as good as it gets until
a 'no-brainer'...great watch...great multi-functions...can run with it; walk and enjoy music with it; show pics etc with it...but most of all it is a great watch...only fault which i am sure will be sorted...next gen nano will surely allow for no-touch but visible watch on screen in stead of the current blank screen between when u want to see the time. Badly explained but basically, the nano 6 only shows time when u press the large 'active' button. Beautiful watch selection then. You press the same button to go back to blank after viewing....reason is that the screen is active and could end up sliding onto other battery-thirsty applications - or worse - resetting some of your app settings! Having to push the button to view time is a tiny pain as well...I have been in the situation where, running - totally wrecked - last thing i wanted to do was break my already creaking stride and breathing by reaching across and pushing the button to see a running time. It seems like a bit precious to criticise the nano for that but I have cursed many times for it...lol. Perhaps a fitter nano owner would have no such issues!
All said though, as long as the next nano sorts these tiny issues out by actually thinking ahead and including in their concept the fact it will be used as a watch, and as long as it fits my 2 watch bands, then I would be prepared to actually buy another! So, at the moment, its as good a concept as you can get. If it linked to the iphone messages or calls missed it would be a very complete gadget. With siri and voice recognition you could even imagine messaging or ringing by voice instruction rather than loading the nano with unnecessary touch screen phone functions. A good mic and headphones would be all siri needs right? Right! Until then I highly recommend
