From the front page of http:///www.rockbox.org:

Rockbox is an open source firmware for mp3 players, written from scratch. It runs on a wide range of players:

Apple: 1st through 5.5th generation iPod, iPod Mini and 1st generation iPod Nano
(not the Shuffle, 2nd/3rd/4th gen Nano, Classic or Touch)

Owh Is there any plan to build new versions for ipod nano 2g?

There is currently no work on a port to the 2nd gen nano. There Apple firmware is encrypted, and until the encryption scheme is figured out, nothing can be done.

Anyway, I'm locking the thread, since the original question has been answered and discussions about this sort of thing have already carried more times than I can count.
