Apple said Tuesday that it has added a new pink iPod nano to its lineup of digital media players just in time for next month's celebration of love.
All of Apple's current third-generation iPod nanos delivers up to 24 hours of audio playback or five hours of video playback on a single charge and is encased in an all-metal design made with anodized aluminum and polished stainless steel, which is also available in silver, black, blue, green and a (PRODUCT) RED special edition.
"Customers are going to love the gorgeous new pink iPod nano," said Greg Joswiak, Appleâs vice president of Worldwide iPod Product Marketing. "The pink iPod nano is perfect for people who want a great new color this spring, or who are searching for a special Valentineâs Day gift."
All third-generation iPod nanos features an enhanced user interface that shows off album artwork and photos and includes Cover Flow, so customers can scroll through their entire music collection by album cover artwork using the Click Wheel. Customers can also buy music, video and games for their iPod nano from the iTunes Store or check out the latest iTunes Movie Rentals.

As long as they don't release a Hello Kitty version...

Actually, though...
If they would sell, why not? The Nano could become like the lunchbox of the 70s. Every schoolkid has one (or more) and they are personalized to their interests. Then they will become collectors items. People will buy them and keep them in their packaging. Apple will laugh all the way to the bank!
On second thought, I guess that will have to be the iPhone Nano, as I figure the stand alone MP3 player is a dead end street these days...
I knew it! One day when I was on my way home, I look up at the billboard while waiting for the train and it hit me. No not the train. It was an advertisement for the Avon Walkathons that are coming up. In the billboard were thousands of ladies all wearing their pink Avon Walkathon shirts. And that's when I thought... "Apple could seriously capitalize on this market" and this was before the lady from Avon came on the Apple board of directors.
Apple is has a whole new crowd of users they will market the iPod too.
Mark my words, you heard it here first.
