That was quick! Cases for the 4G iPod Nano are already available online

That was fast.

Less than 30 minutes after Steve Jobs concluded today's announcement of the latest iPods, I received an e-mail blast informing me that more than 200 accessories for the new players are currently being processed, with "many" of them available to order now.

Among the new items are a slew of cases for the fourth-generation Nano, meaning those "Made for iPod" certificate holders are obviously reaping the rewards of early product notification.

It is reassuring to know that you can protect that new investment the moment you buy it--with the flowery case pictured here, if you so wish.

For more than five years, Jasmine France has covered a variety of tech products for CNET--from scanners to keyboards to GPS devices--but she's happiest where she is now: sitting atop a pile of MP3 players, "testing" every music service known to man, and jamming a variety of earbuds in every shape and color into her absurdly small ears. E-mail Jasmine.

Wow...what a Zune rip-off. Whats next? Adding wireless features to the iPod? How about wireless sharing? Subscription based music? Some one at apple is scared...4g? Doesnt Zune have a 16gb or something coming out soon? Dont they offer upgrades to all the older ones also? Sounds like thats more and more the way to go if apple is starting to take ideas from Microsoft!

You act like Apple is thinking that Microsoft is suddenly going to win over the market share - they reacted to complaints about the previous design and managed to keep the larger screen by including the accelorometer that is used in the ipod touch/iphone. 4G stands for 4th generation, not 4gb - which you would probably know if you weren't just talking smack on apple.
