The new iPod Nano (also referred to as the 5G iPod Nano) was, without question, the biggest star in Apple’s recent iPod event. While it may not be able to take pictures, it’s the first and currently the only iPod to boast of a camera.
The 8GB version retails for just P8790 while the 16GB variant is priced at P10,490 at the Apple Online Store. It should be available in local stores already for more or less the same price, but if you want to be different, you can buy it online and nab the Apple Store exclusive yellow gold or (PRODUCT) Red version and have it engraved for that personal touch. Shipping, by the way, is free as well.

Here’s good news for the Filipino Mac community in the country. Mac OS X Snow Leopard has officially been launched in the Philippines, and can be had for as little as P1,690.00 (family pack retails for P2,790).
Apart from providing faster performance, as Jayvee notes in his review of Apple’s latest Mac OS X iteration, it also frees up 10GB of storage. That, in itself, is probably its greatest selling point. Be that as it may, it’s still not perfect. There has been some issues with regards to certain games, and it’s biggest drawback is that it no longer supports PPC-powered Mac systems. However, considering it has almost been a half a decade since Apple discontinued their PPC line, this shouldn’t affect majority of the Mac users out there right now.
I personally haven’t seen it in stores yet, but as it has already been launched locally, it shouldn’t be long now before we see this available across the nation. So, will you be upgrading to Mac OS X Snow Leopard soon or are you happy with the performance of Leopard already?
