Apple killing off iPod Nano and Shuffle [View all]

Interesting

Apple updated its iPod lineup on Thursday and discontinued the iPod Nano and iPod Shuffle.

They were the last two iPods that didn't run iOS, the same software that runs on the iPhone.

"Today, we are simplifying our iPod lineup with two models of iPod touch now with double the capacity starting at just $199 and we are discontinuing the iPod shuffle and iPod nano," an Apple spokesperson told Business Insider in an email.

The iPod Shuffle and iPod Nano have been removed from Apple's website and online store.

I have a 6th generation iPod Nano. Or as I call it the original Apple watch. I had a nice watch band and wore it as a watch for several years. It eventually quit working but I still have it and the band here at home.
