Nano thoughts: A nitpick and a gush
Apple's third generation iPod Nano is a wonderful little music and video player. One thing bugs me. Look how the text is cut off on the 'now playing' screen:
There's really no reason that the song and album names need to be truncated like that; there's plenty of room to let the text flow to another line.
Obviously it's not a fatal flaw, just irritating.
The video playback on this device is amazing, smooth as silk and surprisingly watchable for such a small screen. In fact it's very forgiving for videos downloaded from YouTube — it helps hide the artifacts of low resolution encoding. (Hint to Mac users: step 1, step 2.)
It happies me.

Foghorn Leghorn makes everyone happy. Or at least Warner Brothers Looney Tunes do.
Geesh, I dont' visit for one day and you go bananas! Slow day yesterday?
i dunno, too much coffee i guess. :P
and that's not foghorn leghorn.... it's sam and ralph the sheepdogs...
I knew it wasn't Foghorn Leghorn, although I thought it may possibly have been from a Foghorn Leghorn cartoon. At least I got the WB Looney Tunes part right...
I've still got a damn fever (OOoo, I'm dyin'! I'm DYIN', I tell ya!!), so cut me some slack! :P
