No product details are provided, just the tantalising "1 Styles, 17 Products".

While this may just be a case of a vendor flying a kite to keep potential customers interested, pictures of XSKN cases for the iPhone 3G and fourth generation iPod nano did emerge before the corresponding products.

Earlier this month, iDealsChina.com claimed the iPhone nano was the same height as the current iPod nano, but wider and thicker. Production was scheduled to begin on December 20.

One notable thing about the report was the suggestion that the iPhone nano will not be a 3G device.

Several questions are raised by the dimensions of the supposed iPhone nano. Are there any other features that will be missing compared with the 'full size' iPhone? If the iPod touch is an iPhone without the phone, will the iPhone nano be an iPhone without the Wi-Fi capability?

What will the screen resolution be? If the same number of pixels are squeezed into a smaller space, legibility may suffer. If there are fewer pixels, what are the implications for existing applications?

If Apple has come up with a way of making iPhone/iPod touch applications resolution independent, that would also work for devices with larger screens, such as a possible Apple netbook.

How much might the iPhone nano cost? Please read on.
