Gentlemen, Apple is in great standing on the Amazon bestseller list, and I think we all know that is just a small snapshot of all the distribution avenues available to MP3 players. It is a little disturbing to find the Zune break the top 10. The brown Zune is selling for $130 and, for that price, appears to be selling.
I believe Apple can make a huge leap if they introduced a "Nano-Touch" iPod for $200. When it is introduced, they could reduce the price of the current 8Gb nano to $150. The new nano-Touch would have the touch screen that everyone is so enamored with, just without as many other features like WiFi. Any takers?

The nano touch will no doubt be part of the future of the iPod line. The question is when. I wonder how much it costs to impleament the touch screen technology. That might be why you only get it on the iPod Touch. Which goes for quite a bit more than the nano. I am assuming that the basic iPods are running a differnt operating system than the Touch or iPhone, which run a reduced version of OSX. The CPU's are probably different too. Do you need more horsepower to run the Touch interface? But someday all iPods will evolve to the Touch interface is my guess, and that is "all good"!
