= registered.Maybe this is only for an overseas market?
Most likely they had some leftover 4GB NAND flash and decided to make a limited run of the new nanos to use it up on those damn furreners.
Drop the shuffle price and have a $99 4gig iPod nano. With the nano priced at $150 you get so much more for the $229 iPod Touch...only $80 more. At $99, it serves well to buy both, one cherished mobile web/app computer, and one super-mobile get sweaty, throw around, quick song and media player, all for $350 after tax. Anyone else see the potential?
Yes, I was in Amsterdam earlier this week and saw the 4 Gig models at an Apple retailer there. They were in silver and black and sold for 139 Euros or $196.
Hey, nand to get rid of as its all going to 8 gig and money coming in too. Plus its cheaper for those who are looking at a promo device.
Just a thought.

yeh... prolly just some leftover RAM they wanted to get rid of, hence the 'limited availability'.
drmac: €139 for a 4 GB nano??? The 8 GB nano sells for €139 in the dutch Apple Store.
@Thomas from Germany
Dutch Apple store? Is that the one with the tasty, crumbly roof?
"Is that the one with the tasty, crumbly roof?"
They should put an Apple Store next to an Amsterdam coffee shop (where all the clocks go, "BONG!"). That should boost impulse buying.
I meant http://store.apple.com/nl 
Slobber! I'm lovin it!!!
