The second-generation nano features scratch-resistant, anodized aluminum casing like the earlier mini's design; the multiple color choices (silver, green, pink, blue, and black) mirror that of the mini as well. However, unlike the second-generation mini, the button labels do not match the color of the nano. Instead, they are gray, like the first-generation mini, except for the black iPod which has a black click wheel. The second generation iPod nanos support gapless playback of audio files, a new search option, and a 40% brighter screen.

NO. Nanos are total no-no’s. The battery sucks. The durabilty is like…. O%. Nah. Go with an Ipod Vid.

i love this ipod holds enough and is the right size, plus comes in a variety of colors, but (like all of them) the ear phones are way to big!

this is what i have. it has a few scratches, and sometimes it will freeze, but its been going strong for 2 years. i wish i had a 3rd gen., now, but i love the nano, and have an awesome docking station to go with it. it’s my little baby!

I love my nano 2nd gen and have recently fallen in love with 4th gen… will get the 16gb silver one today. I hoooope
Looking forward for bigger capacity (now I have 4gb) and video ability. I like they returned back to the 2nd gen shape, I really didnt like gen 3….

This is a great iPod! I have had this iPod for 2 years and the only problems i have had are if you leave it on pause and forget, somethimes it will lock up but you just wait for the battey to die and then charge it again and it’s like new again.

This ipod is bomb! aside from the freezing [which rarely happens] it’s a very good iPod. the battery doesn’t seem like it lasts for 24 hours but either way i really like it. though i wish i had a fourth gen. iPod…

Two of my friends have these iPods. They are little suckers! They dont freeze [on them], but there battery is super long lasting. Also, they are durable, like industructable! I would die for one of these suckers, but I have the 4th generation.

One thing: For the people who have had the 2nd gen iPod Nano’s freeze, Center button+Menu button.
Frodo on April 6th, 2009 at 4:18 pm says:
That does work. It happens a lot to me. I really want to get the iPod Touch. I still love my tiny nano.
Frodo on April 8th, 2009 at 2:13 pm says:
Would anyone buy my nano off eBay? I LOVE my nano, but I want something different now.

I used to have this ipod and it only froze once and the durability is amazing! The battery life could use work, but other than that a affordable, great, buy.

I have a Pink 4GB one [to finish my collection of this one, a 4th Gen. 8GB Blue Nano, a 5th Gen. 16GB Blue, and a Light Pink 3rd Gen. 8GB.] My friend sold me this when she got her a 3rd Gen. silver 4GB. I LOVE This iPod! The thing is it can’t hold video ): but it’s closest to it’s capactiy better than my other nano’s! andd, it’s durable. the battery is the best in my whole nano collection!
