Best colour so far

Best looking of the bunch, no extra cost, portion goes to charity. I
might order this one today. Altogether a nice package. At least they
aren't charging a premium for it like the U2 iPod.

well...

they can't call it a charity if they offset the cost of the donation,
LOL.

I like the color too, my wife's b-day is coming soon...

This is decent...

This is a great move and hopefully, it'll help a lot of people less
fortunate than many of us.

This makes me glad I purchase products from both companies
mentioned.

Could be a decisonmaker

I've been weighing whether to sell my 60 GB iPod and get an 80 GB or keep it and get a nano, perhaps updating to the new shuffle, too. The release of the Red makes me lean toward the new nano. Wouldn't be surprised if other buyers let it be a deciding factor, too.

Excellent Idea!!!!!

I think this is one of the best marketing and charity ideas apple has
had. I was already going to give 2 ipods for christmas, they are
definitely going to be these red ones, that way you are giving and
helping.

I just love it

Apple does a small bit of charity work and is an instant hero, Microsoft (and to a greater extent Bill Gates) has been for years, but they are still evil.

Even so, good work Apple. I wonder how well it sells compared to other iPods.
