I don't think you can. Apple does not advertise it on their website.
Way to go apple for getting rid of useful features to make the nano so small. It's basically a shuffle plus.
I would buy an apple product if I could get FM radio and be able to watch movies on the same device. Wait... my old nano can do that...then why the **** is this one advertised as having more features. Geez. Touch can watch movies but does not have a radio.
Guess I'll wait for the refresh, hopefully they will be logical this time.

There's no version for 8.6. You'll need OS X.
Edit: There's a client for Linux/PPC, but it required a G4 or better.
Edit2: Actually, I found one. SETI@Home X (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/5012/).
Requirements: PowerPC, System 7.5.5

I tried Insomniax and Caffeine. They both seem to not work, when I close the lid the notebook sleeps. I am planning on buying a 40" Tv, wireless keyboard and mouse + 5 foot HDMI to mini-display port cord so I can come back to my dorm, plug into the TV and shut the lid, and basically have a desktop.
Lion doesn't seem to work with these? Or the Air? Anyone tried this on Lion. I never tried to use these programs on SL.
Yes it requires a keyboard AND mouse AND display to be plugged in. I too have tried insomiax and caffeine and even sleepless with no success. sleepless did keep it awake for like 5 minutes but then it slept.
didn't do too much more trying with sleepless but you might try disabling your display and computer sleep in energy saver then using sleepless. or just wait for a lion compatible version or leave the lid open a little with the backlight off.

Research in the US has found that songs get stuck in our heads because they create a "brain itch" that can only be scratched by repeating the tune over and over.
In Germany, this type of song is known as an "ohrwurm" - an earworm - and typically has a high, upbeat melody and repetitive lyrics that verge between catchy and annoying.
Songs such as the Village People's YMCA, Los Del Rio's Macarena, and the Baha Men's Who Let The Dogs Out owe their success to their ability to create a "cognitive itch," according to Professor James Kellaris, of the University of Cincinnati College of Business Administration.
"A cognitive itch is a kind of metaphor that explains how these songs get stuck in our head," Professor Kellaris told BBC World Service's Outlook programme.
"Certain songs have properties that are analogous to histamines that make our brain itch.
"The only way to scratch a cognitive itch is to repeat the offending melody in our minds."
'Insidious and blatant'
Professor Kellaris has presented the early results of his earworm research at a conference on Consumer Psychology.
He said that virtually everyone suffered from a cognitive itch at one time or another.
"Across surveys I found that from 97% to 99% of the population is susceptible to earworms at some time," he stated.
"But certainly some people are more susceptible than others. Women tend to be more susceptible than men, and musicians are more susceptible to them than non-musicians."
The research is of particular interest to both the pop industry - looking to boost sales - and to advertisers, who often use jingles to get their brand name stuck in the head of listeners.
"For both advertising purposes and pop music purposes, you want something that once heard is not forgotten quickly or easily," explained jingle writer Chris Smith, adding that a good earworm was "Insidious - and often quite blatant".
"One of the key elements of an earworm is repetition," he said.
"If you have something with a lot of varied content, it's not so easily assimilated.
"So really, I would have thought that for practical purposes an earworm is really something that people can take on very quickly and then reproduce while walking down the street, much to everybody else's annoyance."
Clearing the mind
Even the greatest musicians had suffered with earworms, Mr Smith said.
Mozart's children would "infuriate" him by playing melody and scales on the piano below his room - but stopping before completing the tune.
"He would have to rush down and complete the scale because he couldn't bear to listen to an unresolved scale," Mr Smith related.
Professor Kellaris said that his research had shown that there was, however, no standard for creating an earworm - people could react differently to different tunes.
"I compiled a top 10 list of earworms in the US, but the number one item is simply the category 'other' - which means that any tune is prone to become an earworm," he said. "It's highly idiosyncratic."
And he added that there was also no guaranteed way of ever getting the song off the brain.
"Replacement strategies rarely work, because as we search our memories for a replacement tune, we're likely to come up with another earworm," he admitted.
"Some people swear by completion strategies - if you listen through a piece in its entirety, some times that will make it go away."

So I recently bought the white iphone 4 (duh just came out) and everything is perfect except for the wifi. I always have 3g and wifi turned on so whenever i'm in a wifi zone it'll connect. The problem is when the phone does connect to wifi, it'll be very unstable and disconnect every 20-30 seconds and reconnect right away. I've been in different wifi locations and so I don't believe its my router (laptop etc. isn't disconnecting)
Anyone with this issue? Should I bring this back to apple or what? Not sure what to do. I'm running the latest 4.2.7 version as well for vzn. Thanks!

I'm hoping for the same. At least it sounds more reasonable that it might work than with the previous model. I'll wait a few weeks, then will go for my local Apple service partner to see if they can do it.

I use a very small version of those rooms which is the shape of a box at work all the time to test the incoming CMU200s to screen them.

I have the v2 as well. I find it to be slow for file-open operations and randomly slow for reading and writing. Using it as an everyday desktop drive makes everything feel sluggish and irritating, so I use mine for archival storage where its speed issues* don't matter to me.
On the data side it has been 100% reliable. I have it on a UPS, so there have been no improper dismounts which I am sure helps. I don't have heat issues, there are 4x1TB Western Digital GreenPower drives in the box.
I also chose the Drobo because I did not want a NAS. I use my network for plenty of other things (A NAS plus streaming with iTunes is especially nuts, as your data ends up traveling over the network twice).
A.
* speed issues: Yes, I can get 35MB/sec out of it. Sometimes. Other times I will be copying a multi-gigabyte file from it and I'm lucky to get 10MB/sec. Just now as a test I tried to copy a 1GB file from the Drobo to /dev/null - 34MB/sec. I tried to copy a second, slightly larger file the same way - 10 MB/sec. I'm sure there's some cool technical explanation, but to the end user it's just unpredictable and annoying.

You should probably download RemoveBackground from Cydia and set it through Activator. It'll help clear out anything running in the background and increase your RAM a bit. Seems to me something is running a lot in the background for you to be hovering around 100MB. The packages you have installed seem pretty "stock" so I doubt any of those would be the culprit.

it depends on what kind of wifi networks youre consistently on.
if you're using public or semi-public wifi networks, then you should probably change your root password.
OR
you can install SBSettings and keep the SSH toggle off and only turn it on when needed, which is what i do. keep in mind that every time you restart it will automatically turn SSH access back on, which is a safety measure in the case something gets corrupted.
Thanks for the reply!
I hadn't noticed that there's a SSH toggle in SBSetting. I'll turn that off for now.
Also MobileTerminal doesn't seem to work on iOS 4. So I'll have to wait anyway.
