Is the scaled down, less expensive iPhone Nano for real?

The rumor mill is churning out reports of an iPhone-like machine from Apple that is scaled-down and costs less the iPhone.

Picking Apple's iPhone Nano or the Android

For a few years, there have been rumors of a small and cheap iPhone from Apple. It’s possible the iPhone Nano might really show up now, states analysts. This is because Apply is letting several connected devices intertwine with its brand name now.

Apple is anticipated to protect the prestigious iPhone brand by introducing an application-specific product such as music and messaging device that makes phone calls.

iPhone Nano will have MobileMe accessible on it

Apple could make MobileMe a free service that would give iPhone Nano users a personal storage unit for photos, music and videos. Memory wouldn't be needed with the MobileMe cloud storage. The possible "iPod phone" could take place too with the MobileMe being a new online music service that Apple is attempting to develop

Apple’s next smartphone innovation

The release of the iPhone Nano is expected to be in June. This is because this is when Apple normally releases the iPhone yearly. Analysts expect the machine to cost about $200, which would allow carriers to subsidize it to the point of being free. Most innovations in smartphones were pioneered by Apple. That is until now anyway. The point in innovations can be more about cost reduction now. That is what is anticipated. Rumors of a less expensive iPhone-like machine from Apple have put other mobile phone manufacturers on notice.
