Case manufacturer XSKN spilling the beans on iPhone nano?

oh, and i might add, i don't think it's going to be that much smaller to be overly noticeable.

@dean, that's assuming the screen will be smaller. I'm thinking the iPhone nano will be very similar dimensions to the iPhone and if it has a smaller screen, the height x width in pixels will be the same.

I am no software expert, but I do understand how coding software works, and for Apple to make iPhone Nano, they would have to make the screen have a smaller resolution. This would create problems with the current applications that are out. The applications that have already been released wouldn't be able to be played properly on a smaller screen, and the developers would be forced to create another version if they wanted their app to work on the iPhone nano.

For this reason, I don't think Apple will release iPhone Nano at Macworld or anywhere else.

Hmm, a smaller screen would be more difficult to type on, unless Phil stands up there and unveils a new software update with landscape keyboard. Cut and paste would be a great differentiating factor between iPhone & iPhone Nano. And to top it all, it would put the Philnote up on a pedestal for all wxuating iPhone owners, serving as a milestone for the transition to a post-Steve Apple.

IMO:
a smaller form factor phone featuring the original iPhone capabilities (but no App store or iTunes wifi store) would sell like hot cakes, without canabilising iPhone 3G sales = BIG BOTTOM LINE FIGURES.

you guys have no imagination...the fact is...anyone can buy a domain with any name and any address they please...you dont think that apple has the resources to buy domains in other names to throw people off the scent...get real...and fact is...the site may have not supposed to link to theirs yet? or it could be a total hoax...why dont we just wait and find out in january...its not that far away

Not normally one to spend (waste?) time investigating such things, but I was bored...

www.iphonenano.com resolves to 216.34.131.135 and a quick nslookup on that show it as ..

whois 216.34.131.135
Savvis SAVVIS (NET-216-32-0-0-1)
216.32.0.0 - 216.35.255.255
DBS Administration Pty Ltd SAVV-S231205-3 (NET-216-34-131-128-1)
216.34.131.128 - 216.34.131.255

and DBS Administration Pty Ltd seem to be a Brisbane (AU) company who flog domains - so whilst the rumour may/may not have some truth in it - the presence of a the iphonenano.com domain means nothing (and to be honest if I was AAPL), I'd be tad annoyed people were putting fake product domains up and putting a redirect on them to me ;-)

I would just like to see an iPhone where the data plan isn't legitimately required by the service provider. I'd also like to see tiered data plans, for those of us who don't need unlimited data.

I loved my iPhone's functionality, but could not justify the extra monthly data cost when I am only using data occasionally. I'd be more apt to buy a watered down iPhone that gives me the same great user interface and similar functionality and a less expensive data plan that will cap me at so many 10's or 100's of MB per month.

I'm not a fan of the all or nothing data. Also, AT&T could you finally please include text messaging in the iPhone data plan, as much as I want to give you more money, I think I give you enough for my voice plan, landline and DSL. kthx!
