It's not disappointing. It's evolutionary, using predictably better components. Like most mature Apple products.

I was a little disappointed (but not really surprised) that the Nano was rev'd without adding apps, which would be a) cool and b) further open the app store to new devices.

Great way to put it, definitely not next generation but that wasn't to be expected. I don't know why it was a shock to many. I still plan to get it as i'd like to switch back to iOS.

I felt the iPod's didn't fit in at all, they could have just released those on the site without a launch another time or innovate some more and do a proper announcement but i'm sure it's good for some. Agree on the apps.
