all new ipods are made in china, i got the ipod nano video 8gb in black, theve improved the screen quality alot from the previous models, only bad thing about it is that the back of it gets scratched really easily. i got mine got 227$CA. Also the new headphones sound better than the old ones. Bad thing is that the battery life is about 8 months after which it significantly goes down. (apple warranty does not cover the battery)
