One major failure of the nano is the loss of video playback, it was a big deal when Apple brought it into the 3rd gen nano in 2007, and judging by how some of my friends use their nano, it is an indispensable feature. To others was the loss of the click-wheel. So, here is how I believe Apple can fix the nano:
- Volume +/-, Forward, Rewind and Pause/Play buttons.
- Drop the price
- Market it as the iPod shuffle
- Bring back the 5th gen iPod nano with double the storage capacity

Yep. The 5th was just right for its job, while the 6th appears to be not quite a sports player (can't work it by touch, too expensive/delicate to get drowned in sweat) and does not replace the 5th in form or function.
Now that there are no new or refurb 5th on the Apple site I will wait for rumors of a "new" version nearly identical to v5 but sweat/scratch resistant and either cheaper or having better audio.
Or shop another brand. I like the Apple no-fuss everything just works together ecosystem, but not enough to buy something I basically don't want.
