I hate to admit it in writing, but I lost my iPod Nano. I feel terrible. Usually I am very good at keeping track of my belongings, but somewhere between two trips, my Nano has gone missing. Right now it someone riding the metro in Stockholm or on the monorail in Las Vegas, may be listening to my music.

I could complain that the Nano is too small, but that is why I love it. It does everything that bigger MP3 players do in a very slim and small form factor. I am kicking myself that I didn’t label it with my name and phone number so the Swede or Nevada citizen who probably found it, at least had a chance to return it. In fact, why don’t Apple and other manufacturer’s give us a way to easily input our contact information and have it flash on the screen when the gadget is turned on?
