What are the differences between the second generation iPod nano models?
Please note that all iPod models mentioned in this Q&A have been discontinued. The second generation iPod nano was replaced by the third generation iPod nano on October 13, 2006. All of the second generation iPod nano models share sleek 3.5 inch tall by 1.6 inch wide by 0.26 inch deep aluminium cases similar in style to the discontinued iPod mini (2nd Generation) players.

The second generation iPod nano models, like the original iPod nano, support a number of audio and photo formats, but do not natively support video playback. Di
