Hex watch bands for iPod nano on pre-order now

by Mike Schramm (May 17th, 2011)

Now that's a good looking nano watch. We've covered a few iPod nano watch bands before, but to me, they've always seemed kind of cheap and hinky, more hacks than things that you'd actually wear out and about. But I really like this new band from Hex Vision -- it's a stainless steel band with a ...

Rumored 7th generation iPod nano with camera doesn't seem likely

by Michael Grothaus (May 10th, 2011)

Diamonds plus nano plus watch equals this $18k monstrosity

There is, it has to be admitted, a market for diamond-encrusted Apple products. Having the good taste to buy something magical and revolutionary doesn't necessarily mean you have good taste full stop. So, for those of you with more (way, way more) money than sense who live at the blingier end ...
