Accessories that do and don't work with the iPod nano

nano_macallyPhil Torrone at Make magazine has some photos showing which of his old iPod accessories do and don't work with the iPod nano. He found that the Apple iPod camera connector and Belkin photo adapter are out of commission with the iPod nano, and you can't charge or share the nano with the iPod shuffle. On the positive side, the trusty Macally speakers still work fine with the iPod nano.

To me, the biggest problem is not which accessories work with the Nano, it's that the Nano does not connect via FireWire!!! I can't believe it! My Mac G4 has FireWire and USB 1, and I have to connect via USB. If you plug the Nano into the Mac with a FireWire to dock connector cable, the Nano displays a message stating you cannot connect via FireWire. Unbelievable.

My white apple earphones from my 60 gig photo work with the Nano. Just thought I'd let you know.

There should be a fair amount of accessories that work, but wont look right because of the small form factor of the Nano. I can hear the accessory manufacturers running around now.

How could you possibly use an iPod Shuffle to charge the nano? That's just silly.
