Now making a choice means making a difference. In 4GB and 8GB models(1), the iPod nano (PRODUCT) RED holds up to 2,000 songs, 25,000 photos(2), and a little hope. That’s because $10 from every iPod nano (PRODUCT) RED sold goes directly to the Global Fund to fight AIDS in Africa. </i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/rednano.jpg" /> <br /><br />I have always been partial to red. While this may not be an earth shattering news post the (PRODUCT) RED endeavor is for a good cause. Now I just need to convince the wife I need a new nano.

Luckily I don't like red, but even if I did I'd intentionally not buy this because of the "cause" that it goes towards. Just give me an MP3 player, don't attach some political cause to it...thanks Bono. :roll:

Now perhaps I am reading that wrong, but putting color aside and seeing how there is no additional cost to you, you would rather get a normal one because of Bono?

No, I just don't support the fight against AIDS in Africa, the solution is really simple, the guys need to control themselves over there. :) I mentioned Bono because he's a proponent of the fight against AIDS over there, and if Jobs wasn't a huge fan of U2 I doubt they'd be making a red iPod with some of the money going to this cause.
