The Reappearance of the iPod Nano Fifth Generation?

When the new iPod nanos were released around late 2010, I immediately knew that I, a tech enthusiast, would not be too pleased. The concept is great, sure, but when you incorporate an already used aspect from another iPod, the touch screen, to a model that revolves around being a good medium in between the iPod touch and iPod classic, we get a little "sketchy" on what is to happen in the future.

Now, touch screen devices are indeed the future, but wouldn't it be nice to steer clear from it without spending a few more dollars on a Classic? The iPod nano fifth generation was and still is a great device. I'm not implying that the newer device is at all a bad product, but it just isn't what I think it should be. Apple still needs to continue developing newer generations of iPods that stay up to date, like the alleged camera on the new nano update, but still offer in full, some older generations that we, as a group, are used to.

Non iPad Tablets: Just Stop

The iPad has won. It's over. Why other companies still want to continue making tablets that are unresponsive, useless, and just bad is a mystery. It seems that Apple are the only people who can make touch screens, as all, repeat all of the non-Apple touch screens I have tried have been really really awful. 

The other issue of course when you have a tablet is what OS you have and honestly, again Apple easily triumphs. They came up with the whole app idea, Android has less Apps, and even with the new Gingerbread update, it still won't cut it.

Besides, the Apple UI is just so much nicer. Nice little icons, whereas Android has several different screen layouts and is, let's face it, pretty disorganised. So if hardware wise AND software wise other tablets are not up to standard, the other companies should just save the effort and try to innovate and invent something new for once.

Apple are always the company who come out with the revolutionary ideas, and everybody steals them. Windows 7 is basically a really bad, virus filled version of Mac OS X and to honest, I'm surprised Apple haven't launched a big lawsuit against Windows yet. I'm not an Apple fanboy in any way, but I do think they easily make the best products (even though a few, like the new Nano, are horrible to be polite). My message to other companies is simple, to recap: INNOVATE and DON'T STEAL.
