What features would you like to see in the next iPod nano?

iPod nano Release History

Sep 05 -- 1st Gen
Sep 06 -- 2nd Gen
Sep 07 -- 3rd Gen
Sep 08 -- 4th Gen
Sep 09 -- 5th Gen
Sep 10 -- 6th Gen
Sep 11 -- 6th Gen (no new release)
Sep 12 -- 7th Gen ???

This rumor suggests a rectangular screen and home button like a smaller iPhone along with a built-in dedicated iTunes service.

Apple's next iPod nano may resemble tiny iPhone, feature dedicated iTunes service

After reading this rumor, it got me to thinking that maybe my iPod touch is too large. I use it mostly for audio, so a smaller version would be a great audio device.

So how about a nano with iOS, wifi, touch screen, and apps? It would make a great audio device - Amazon Cloud Player, Audible, BBC Radio, CBC Radio, iTunes, iTunes U, NPR Radio, OverDrive, Pandora, Podcasts, TuneIn Radio, etc. In other words, shrink the iPod touch.
