Hm, iPod nano might actually be a viable idea.
I mean, now, when Apple (a) stopped sticking to the only resolution for all iPhone OS devices and (b) is putting much higher resolution screen into older package - maybe it might make sense for them to also put old resolution (320 x 480) into smaller package?
The problems I see in these approach are the following:
1. How can one meaningfully make iPhone smaller/more energy efficient/cheaper?
2. Do people need a smaller iPhone? Is physically smaller touch screen as usable?
- dave1619 16y agoYeah, good points. I think they can make the screen a bit smaller than the current iPhone, but keep the 320x480 resolution. This way apps will still be usable. But they can also remove space from the top and bottom of the phone and make it a lot thinner. Overall, I think they can really shrink the iPhone significantly. This could appeal to lots of people. Especially, now the iPad is out and people don't mind having a smaller iPhone to compliment their iPad.
