In the Chinese section of IFA there is a portable media player that has been produced that had a very strong resemblance to the iPhone, but its smaller. So there is really no way in hell it could be an iPhone Nano.

However, it does look very much like the iPhone, save for the giant “MP4 Player” sticker across the top and some retarded looking joystick type of thing at the bottom. So yes, the product is real, no its not an iPhone Nano, although that could be one of the announcements on Wednesday, I doubt it, but at an Apple event, it’s like McDonalds’ “Hey, it could happen” slogan.

Just to let you all know though, SlashGear will be live-blogging from the Apple event on Wednesday, so if there is anything to know about, we will be the ones bringing it to you. So just as soon as Steve drops the big bomb on the whole line of new products or updates the current ones or whatever that crazed maniac is going to do, check by here or SlashGear and we will have the deets for you.
