I'd like to find out whether the new nano remains compatible with the Nike+ iPod watch remote and I imagine the manual might mention this (or Nike+ accessories in general). Any idea if the manual's available yet?

He specifically mentioned Nike + in the announcement today. You even see the icon on the nano several times.

I know he mentioned Nike+, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the Watch Remote will work. The Sport Kit will definitely work, but the Watch Remote...I'd have to look at the manual.
 
Stupid question; but the receiver isn't built in now, is it? I'll still need a dongle?
Has it been built into any nano? (or other ipod besides the touch and iPhone?)

It better! I've been waiting for this update, but lacking any capacity bump, i might just be looking for an older model instead.

This !

(Will probably be the deciding factor of buying one or not)

The pictures on the website have the dongle sitting beside the ipod nano, when by itself.

But when clipped on the person, he is running, and using the nike plus app, with no dongle (although i suspect this is done for aesthetics ... as the dongle is ugly )

Have you noticed that the dongle never changed shape to suit the later curvy ipods in the same way it was originally shaped to fit exactly flush with the G2 Nano. As soon as the shape became at odds with the nanos, it became ugly.
