iPod POLL: Do YOU want the scroll wheel to come back on the Nano?

[aplqna]

I just bought a 16G Nano and love it! Because I am quite late in the game with the iPods, I would have to say no to the scroll wheel. I've owned 2 iPhones and have an iPad, so all I've been accustomed to now are the finger swipes....so convenient and responsive, love it!!!

Same here. Although I've owned Classics and scroll wheel nanos in the past. It's my favorite iPod to date. To each his own, but I'm very happy with this one.

I think it should come back.

Yes, please bring back the clickwheel and add a 2" square OLED touch screen to the next gen iPod nano. More importantly, include the notes, contacts, and calendars they dropped for the 6th gen iPod nano and the capability for apps. I bought a refurb 5th gen for that reason, although I liked the touch screen in principle on the 6th gen iPod nano.

I've got every nano since the 2nd generation, my favorite iPod still is the 3rd generation "fatty" nano, but I also like my 6th gen because it is so unbelievably small yet features a touch screen.

Even though the 4th incarnation of the iPod shuffle seemed like a step back (and capacitiy-wise it sadly is) I don't think Apple would go backwards with their iPod nano line. I could envision a slightly bigger nano (half the size of an iPod touch) featuring the "real" iOS with maybe some app restrictions but (please, finally) 32GB "disk space".

But hey, it's Apple. Maybe it'll stay the way it is with just a couple of features added, maybe it'll be something different alltogether. I just don't think The Return of The Clickwheel (amazing title for a movie) is ever gonna happen.
