Macworld 2009 has come and gone and as we had predicted Apple did not announce iPhone Nano at the event but the iPhone Nano rumors haven't stopped.
Taiwan's Economic Daily News is reporting that two chip manufacturers, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and United Microelectronics Corporation, are expected to receive chip orders for Apple's iPhone Nano.
Taiwan's Economic Daily News is reporting that two chip manufacturers, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company and United Microelectronics Corporation, are expected to receive chip orders for Apple's iPhone nano in March indicating of the launch in time for June which fits the iPhone cycle. It is also the month Apple holds its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC).
Brian Marshall, an analyst at American Technology Research also believes that Apple is working on the iPhone Nano and expects the launch early this year.
But since industry insiders have confirmed that iPhone Nano has not tested by AT&T yet, he believes iPhone Nano will not be released in US initially.
I think its a case of reading too much between the lines, it is highly unlikely for Apple to release something outside of US first.
Marshall also speculates that China may be an ideal market for the iPhone Nano's initial release. He said:
There have been quite a few rumors about Apple's iPhone Nano prior to Macworld 2009 and since there was very little iPhone news at Apple's last Macworld 2009 I expect such rumors to continue prior to Apple's next event.
iDealsChina was the first to publish information and rendering of the iPhone Nano case manufactured by a Chinese case manufacturer, XSKN claiming that the product will be announced at Macworld San Francisco 2009.
We then had the case manufacturer, XSKN add references to iPhone nano on its website and then followed up by publishing the entire series of iPhone Nano cases for sale suggesting that rumors of a smaller version of iPhone could be true.
We also had a well-known case designer Vaja who has just updated its web catalog revealing that they have plans to release protective case for the iPhone Nano in the near future.
What do you think about the latest iPhone Nano rumors?

Hey Hatter,
Thanks for the tip!
Based on the clues (there is one other device… and it certainly isn’t iPhone 3G related), it looks like the Dev team will soon be releasing a solution to jailbreak the 2nd gen iPod Touch.
First, any images posted since last year is real product, but not from Apple.
There are so many mp3 players, touch phones in China that look similar to the iphone.
Same size, smaller size(rumored iphone nano), similar size, etc…
You cannot imagine how many fakes are out in the world.
Because of so many reasons Iphon nano seams not a good idea.
However, maybe it may come out.
Even it comes out… always the main product is always better than some smaller version.
Just like iPod touch is better than iPod nano.
Great. Count me as somebody wanting one of these.
