Filed in: Gadgets — October 27th, 2004
SAN JOSE, Calif.–Apple Computer on Tuesday unveiled a color screen version of its popular iPod music player, in addition to a special-edition version in partnership with rock band U2.
The color model can also be used to display photos, either on its own screen or on a TV set. It comes in two capacities: a 40GB model for $499 and a 60GB version for $599. The screen is capable of displaying 65,536 colors.
The U2-themed iPod holds 20GB, is black with a red navigation dial on the face and includes a facsimile of the band members’ signatures on the back. For $349, or $50 more than the cost of the regular 20GB iPod, the buyer receives a $50 coupon that can be used toward purchasing “The Complete U2″ music collection, priced at $149, from Apple’s iTunes store.

The U2 Version is definately for the fans… seeing that U2 has such a huge fan base, it is not surprising apple would make this association.
For me, I would rather get the original version, not needing to pay the $50 premium…
