I don't know if that is a fair comparison, since Apple isn't asking you to buy an existing nano with the hope that you'll have a higher capacity nano later. they're separate products. also of note is that blu-ray supporters were very adamant in fighting rumors that dual layer discs wouldn't be ready for launch.....but they aren't. now the question is when will they be. sure they say in a few months, but last fall they said they already being produced.

I was willing to take their statement on faith at the time since neither format was out, but here we are and no dual-layer discs. They should be out in a few months according to thier current release dates, but until they are theres at least a hint of suspicion about why something that was being produced 9 months ago isn't on shelves right now.
