Fifth Generation iPod Nano - The Fifth Generation iPod nano differs from its predecessors in a number of ways, most notably thanks to the addition of a camera that can record video and its slightly bigger screen.

The Fifth Generation iPod nano sports a 2.2-inch diagonal screen, slightly larger than its predecessor's 2-inch screen. This screen is taller than it is long.
