Mix: Jobs, nano sales, INDEX awards, Subway maps, Price cuts
Forbes has ranked Apple CEO Steve Jobs the 67th richest person in America with a net worth of $3.3 billion.
Analysts at UBS Investment Research believe that iPod nano sales will account for just under 50% of total iPods sold in fiscal 2006 and more than 50% of total iPods sold in fiscal 2007.
Apple’s iTunes and iPod won an award in the “Play” category at this year’s INDEX: Awards. The large design event takes place once every four years.
Wired reports that transit officials in New York and San Francisco have launched a “copyright crackdown” on iPodSubwayMaps.com, which offers free downloadable subway maps for color screen Pods.
Audiology has slashed the price of its iTransit protective iPod mini case with neck strap and built-in earphones from $29.99 to $7.50. Tekkeon has cut the price of its myPower rechargeable battery and portable dock from $89.95 to $59.95.

Awww. Those maps were really good too! I downloaded them because I’m planning a big trip to NY! I might still have a copy *hint hint*

Eat THAT bank account, Zander.
Motorola sells 200 *million* phones every quarter, sales up ~35% on last quarter. I don’t think he’s very worried about his bank account.
