Screw the nano... or not.

Motorola CEO Ed Zander asks what does the nano do? Who needs 1000 songs in their pockets? So he says, "Screw the nano."

Some would also seem to agree. AppleXNet asks why Apple would even kill the mini? The writer feels that the iPod nano is a step back. Why couldn't Apple have imporved on the mini with new colors or a bigger memory? Some people are calling for new features not less features and more hype.

Motorola reacts.
Motorola says that Ed Zander was taken out of context by IDG News Service. Motorola said that the comment "Screw the nano," was said jokingly and that Zander was smiling when he said it. He also praised Apple and the iPod. MDN
