KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Is the latest iPod really something you just got to have?

The new iPod Nano is smaller than a credit card, but has a built in camera and FM radio.

Gretchen Keen loved all the new features, but is not ready to spend $150 for the new Nano.

"It looks cool, but I already have an iPod. One without the camera? Yeah, so I don't know if I’m looking for a new one anytime soon," says Keen.

The camera shoots standard definition video. However it can be a little awkward to hold since it is so small. CNET and PC World both say the camera is not as good as the popular flip HB camera, but is convenient.

The Radio also has a cool feature where consumers can tag the songs they like and buy them later from iTunes.

There is one downside from some apple fans on their blogs: while the new iPod Nano now has a video camera, the superior iPod Touch does not.

However if a basic video camera with your iPod is what you're after, then the new Nano might be for you.
