it says that the 2nd gen uses a ARM Processor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPod_nano
here a little bit of information about ARM

This is information we already have. It's the encryption of the nano firmware that's the problem.

No it wouldn't, as that only satisfies one of the things needed for a port. Motivation and time are still needed, and which may not be available to many devs, as they may be currently working on something else, or have other priorities.
cormie:
Can anyone confirm this yet?
Would it be possible to buy a 160GB classic and an 80GB 5.5 gen, swap HD's, rockbox the 160GB hd in the 5.5 and then sell the classic as an 80gb classic instead of a 160gb classic?
GodEater:
I believe the drive connectors are different - so no, you couldn't do that.
Hellmark:
From the photos I've seen, the videos had an actual cable for the drive, where as the classics have a cartridge style quick disconnect socket mounted on.
Too bad though, because yeah, bigger sized video ipod would rock.
