No, that feature's gone, too. Again, Apple's not really talking up the features it removed from the nano, but it's likely a combination of both design changes and product strategy. On the design front, the new nano's screen is noticeably smaller than what the fifth-generation nano had to offer--the 2.2-inch widescreen display has been shrunk down to a 1.54-inch square. That size and aspect ration aren't really well-suited to watching the copy of you rented from the iTunes Store. (Note that the latest iPod nano display photos and album art, and can even output them, with the right cable, to a TV.) In terms of product strategy, Apple has very clearly drawn a line dividing its mobile devices: If you're looking for something that will play music, then you can choose either a nano or an iPod shuffle. Anything more--watching videos, using apps, surfing the Web--and you'll need to upgrade to an iPod touch.

Not as far as we can tell. We'll keep an eye peeled for any other changes once we get our hands on a shipping version. We can tell you that the iPod nano supports Apple's VoiceOver technology for announcing artists, songs, and albums. (That's a feature most prominently on display in the iPod shuffle.) As with past models, this nano supports the Nike+ exercise tracking service, features VoiceMemos and Photo apps, and includes an FM radio.
