Can anyone tell me how to tell if this iPod Nano 2GB I bought used (new in the box) is a 1st or 2nd generation model? Should be easy to tell if you knew what to look for. Any help appreciated.

Colors and capacity. If you have something other than white or black it's second gen. Compare and contrast:

Thanks for the links: I ran the update utility from iTunes and it told me this was a 2nd generation model :-)!
