Apple introduces Product RED iPod nano

Darksaber · Oct 13, 2006, 06:57 PM

The 2G iPod nano just got another color addition - red. The 4GB iPod nano has the same specs as all the others 4GB models. While the price is still $199 US Dollars, $10 dollars of each "Product RED" sold will go directly to the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa.

pt, did you even read the first post about the red ipod, and why it's red?

lemonadesoda · Oct 13, 2006, 08:43 PM

I think a "carbon fibre" skin would be more cool. Red is for italian sports cars, or for handbags

Well at least they are giving some money to a cause instead of keeping it for themselves.
More companies should do this in the computer world.
Lol now I can see pink ATI and Nvidia cards.....

Lord_Garshna · Oct 14, 2006, 02:56 AM

Dude, p.diddy and jay-z are way ahead of you with the pink theme... i'm sure they have a pink video card, nothing but a g thing baby.

Pink's for fools.

Purple is where its at.

Azn Tr14dZ · Oct 14, 2006, 05:02 AM

Purple is where the queers are at, pink is pimpin.

randomperson21 · Oct 14, 2006, 07:17 AM

you know, i think this is the only ipod nano color i actually like. personally, i think the others look lame. and it at least goes for a good cause.

Jimmy 2004 · Oct 14, 2006, 11:19 AM

I agree, this red one looks nice. All of the other colours seem to have a slightly 'faded' appearance, and this one is a nice vibrant colour. Still like my 1stG iPod more, just a shame they do scratch. Oh well, just means less people want to steal it from me.

I would have bought one of the red phones if I could but only the motorolar phones and some lower models by other brands come with the red charity versions and I want a good phone that lasts, no disrespect to the cause. If I break my nano, this is what I'll get.

Edit: I don't like the way Apple releases these later than the others. By now, a lot of people will have already though "new iPods!!! I want one!!!" and they might have bought the red one. I guess better late than never.
