If you haven't seen one already, you're not going to believe how small the Nano actually is. However, this new flash-based iPod turned out to be the iPod Nano, which replaces the now discontinued Mini, and is possibly the most seductive iPod Apple has ever released. Towards the end of August, news reports indicated that Apple planned to buy as much as 40 percent of Samsung's NAND flash-memory output for the second half of 2005, to use in a new flash-based iPod Mini. Jobs also spoke about the iPod and Apple's digital music initiative, discussing many of Apple's product announcements of the preceding couple of weeks. Apple CEO Steve Jobs and Senior Vice President of Worldwide Product Marketing Phil Schiller held a media conference at the Paris Expo and, among the topics discussed, Jobs confirmed that the company was on track to have Intel-based Macs available in June 2006.
While Apple withdrew from presenting the usual keynote for the recent Paris Mac Expo, where last year they announced the iMac G5, there's been no lack of interesting Apple product news over the last month. We round up a month of small, yet interesting, product releases from Apple, as well as looking at how the company is making it easy for Linux developers to port audio software to Mac OS X.
