I think that apple will use harder plastics and give the metal backing a matte or brushed finish. Perharps the use of glass might come into play.]]>Jul 10th 2006 10:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/10/apple-to-give-new-ipod-nano-an-aluminum-makeover/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/10/apple-to-give-new-ipod-nano-an-aluminum-makeover/Jul 10th 2006 10:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/10/apple-to-give-new-ipod-nano-an-aluminum-makeover/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/10/apple-to-give-new-ipod-nano-an-aluminum-makeover/

The mini was not "painted". That's kinda half the point of anodized aluminum. The color is actually part of the aluminum. It's not going to rub off or wear off.

There would be zero point in making half the mini one color and the other half plain aluminum. That would actually cost Apple *more* (since they're still anodizing both sides, they're just running two production lines per unit) and it would be uglier.

btw, I think this story is way more significant than the MS Argo of yesterday, if for no other reason than the new nano will outsell the Argo by about 100 to 1.
