New Apple Patent Shows iPhone Nano?

In a patent filed by Apple right before January’s MacWorld where they announced the iPhone, shows a smaller double-sided device. It has phone functions, but one side is touch screen, while the other side is the display. The patent describes this as a way to keep smudges off the display while using multi-touch instead of a stylus on the back. This reminds us a little of the Samsung UpStage phone with dual sides and a touch interface on the back. Will it be easy to control the iPod though, while reaching around back? The device looks much smaller then the iPhone, and could be plans for a 2nd generation iPhone, or even an iPhone nano. This patent seemingly will impact not only future iPhones, but iPods as well. Who wouldn’t love to see a dual-sided multi-touch iPod?
