Sorry you may see a few more of these as I find things out or think of them. The FM radio only works when you have headphones plugged in. You can play movies or listen to music without headphones it plays through the internal speaker much like the 2nd gen ipod touch. They don’t sound they greatest but it works for what it is.

Another thing to note is the pedometer, it was always off by about 5 steps, but they claim if its used with a nike+ipod adapter then it will help make it more accurate. Ill try it when running tomorrow.

A couple things to note – The video quality when uploaded to youtube did diminish a little bit. I tried watching the videos full screen on my macbook pro and they looked fine, decent enough that they would be watchable if you wanted to make a home movie of something, youtube does not give it as much justice. Another thing I forgot to mention is that the trackpad is small on the new nanos, so if you though the last ones were too small then you will not like these, but they had to shrink them down to make that screen bigger and it was worth it, those screens are awesome!
It took me a while to figure out how to do the effects on the video recording, if you have one and are stumped while in the video camera hold down the center button for about 4 seconds then it will pop up the display showing all the effects then just choose and click one.
