If yesterday's First Look wasn't enough for you, then head on over to CNET's full review of the Apple iPod Nano 4G.

Wondering if the Nano's rounded screen twists your videos like a funhouse mirror? Has Steve Jobs finally boosted the iPod's audio quality? Is it true that Apple embedded a robot voice in the Nano that will read you menu and song information? All answers will be revealed.

If reading's not your thing, we've also posted a dandy Nano 4G slide show, and you can always take another look at my hands-on video from yesterday's Let's Rock! event.
