Today is not the first time we have heard about the Apple iPhone Nano, although it is the first time we have had this rumored device confirmed by a major newspaper for the UK market.
While this seems a solid rumor, do we really need the iPhone in a smaller form factor?
The large screen, big storage, 3G and other features on the latest iPhone is very handy. The iPod Nano was needed to fill a gap in the portable media player market but I am not so sure about the iPhone.
We have a massive range for phones available from all sorts of brands; the iPhone is one of our favourites. Stripping this device down and having a smaller less featured device would not be needed in our view.
Would you want a Nano version of the iPhone that’s also less featured?
The Daily Mail reports from their inside sources that the UK is getting an iPhone Nano in Christmas 2008. The device will appeal to phone users that want PAYG for the cheap price of £150 and not the dearer price of a PAYG iPhone 3G.
How would you feel if Santa put an iPhone Nano under your tree this year?

Christmas 2008: Apple nano PAYG O2 iPhone

According to Phones Review Apple is about to launch a brand new device which is the nano version of the iPhone. Apparently it will be released in shops in time for Christmas 2008.
The nano version iPhone will sell in the UK for around about £150 on pay-as-you-go (PAYG) with O2 who are the mobile phone company owned by Telefonica; this is going to be the hottest product on sale this Christmas a source has revealed.
We all know how popular the first iPhone was and of course how well the iPhone 3G is doing also, but may people will ask is this going to be too expensive for the PAYG customer at £150. There will however be cut-down version with the same shape as the iPod nano music players.
One expert suggested the nano phone would have a touch wheel on the back and a very cool display on the front so that numbers would be dialled from behind, now this sounds interesting.
