One of ill begotten daughters mates has been round our place distraught because she wanted an iPod nano for Christmas.

Her Dad started to try and buy one off the net today, all sold out and no deliveries before the big day. None in shops either.

I hate the Christmas starting in August as much as anyone, but ffs get a grip!

Just make sure that you pay by direct money transfer to ensure a quick delivery.

I have heard that Western Union are best for this.

Oh no, I've just had a bankers draft made up for too much, so if I send you this you can just send me the change in cash, yeh?

Try your nearest large Tesco's.
They did a deal with apple to sell off the old style ipod 20gb jobbies. part of the deal was a really good stock of nano's. Was in my local today and they still had stock of both 2gb and 4gb in both colours. I got my black 4gb from tesco's when even the apple store in London couldnt get them in stock.

If you manage to get one then you should go here www.decalgirl.com/browse.cfm/2,201.htm and get some screen protectors and a clear (or patterned) skin. They scratch quite easy even when treated with kid gloves. Decalgirl (sad name) have a superb range of patterned skins but also do a really nice clear tough skin and their delivery and service comes highly reccomended by me.

Seconded mine is scratched to fork and I have been quite careful with it. Mind you it still plays music ok so I don't really care
