↑ The "Nano" 6G is something entirely new, that doesn't seem to have much in common with the older generations of the Nano series. We don't yet know how this device works and if we want to do something with it at all.
↑ ^2.0 ^2.1 We need a new exploit to execute code on this device.
↑ UART is not really needed here as we can already access the device via USB.
↑ ^4.0 ^4.1 Should be similar to the iPod Classic 1G, but wasn't tested on this platform yet.
