You know if hardware is released by Apple, iFixIt will tear apart for the world to see the device's innards. We jest -- we love the iFixit guys, because if they didn’t rip apart new products to find magical hidden things inside, we would have to, and we don’t think we could bear to slice open the new iPod nano like they just did.
Their verdict: The new hardware is almost identical to the old one, save for the chips that enable new features. However, there is a 56 pixel taller screen (17.5% more screen real estate), an INSANELY tiny camera, and a battery that warns you it might spontaneously explode.
