Me, Too! Complaint! New Nano Must Run on Tiger, WTF???
#13
Release dates:

OS X 10.3 - October 24. 2003

iPod mini (1G)- January 6, 2004

G5 iMac - August 31, 2004

iPod mini (2G) - February 22, 2005

OS X10.4 - April 29, 2005

iPod nano (1G) - February 7, 2006

iPod nano (2G) - September 12, 2006

iPod nano (3G) - September 5, 2007


Moral of the story: Since the release of the G5 iMac, there have been two OS upgrades and four revisions to the mini/nano line.

On the PC side, Apple supports the current OS (Vista) and the previous OS (XP). On the Mac side, Apple supports the current OS (10.5) and the previous OS (10.4).

It's a bit of a stretch to not update a computer in three years and then expect it to run the latest and greatest releases. One can only dodge the bullet for so long unless you're content to run an older iPod connected to an older machine.

For what it's worth, under the refurb/clearance page, second generation nanos are available, which do offer support under 10.3.9
