Spanish term or phrase: Duda sobre las conjunciones

Esta situación se me ha presentado otras veces, pero generalmente la soluciono alterando el orden de los elementos.
En esto caso me he encontrado con lo siguiente:

iPod mini, iPod nano e iPod touch

Cuando la palabra que sigue a la conjunción en un término extranjero, que aunque se escriba con "i" se pronuncia "ai", desconozco la regla que se aplica.
Otro caso sería el de la conjunción "o":
Debe seleccionar OneWorld o OneLand

La regla dictaría que se use la "u", pero estos casos donde se utiliza la fonética del vocablo extranjero pienso que serían excepciones.
