The sixth-generation iPod was a bold innovation in form factor design, with Apple's signature I/O interface despite being smaller. At the same time, rumors that Apple was planning to launch a 3G-capable iPod and a new version of its iLife software suite began to surface. According to people familiar with the matter, according to photos leaked from a third party this week, the sixth-generation iPod nano looks and sizes closer to the iPod shuffle model. Despite its smaller size, the device still comes with Apple's signature iPod extension port, making it compatible with the current iPod lineup.
