I will admit, I am not an iPod owner. I am one of the few in the world, but my Dell DJ does me just fine. My dad swears by his though, he has one of those special edition black and red U2 models that came out in 2004.

According to T3, a gadget magazine in UK, rumors are surfacing that Apple is joining in on a campaign to aid HIV research called Product Red.

"Late last week rumours surfaced that a red iPod is in the pipeline. This began following a post on Popbitch which claimed that U2 front man Bono was overheard “in Dublin’s Michelin-starred Patrick Guilbaud restaurant discussing a new charity red Amex card and red iPod.” There was nothing to suggest this was more than pure hearsay until Bono today unveiled the aforementioned red Amex card as part of Product Red – a new brand of red merchandise created to help fight the global battle against HIV. The idea is that around 40 percent of the profits received from the sale of these special red products would go to the Global Fund to Fight Aids."
