For you guys wondering what HP has got to do with the price of fish in China...

"HP's North American online store has begun accepting pre-orders for the PC maker's own-brand version of Apple's iPod.

Dubbed the 'iPod+HP' - aka 'the Apple iPod from HP' - the device is being offered in its 20GB and 40GB incarnations for $300 and $400, respectively. Orders taken from today onwards will ship on 15 September, the site estimates.
Cash`n`Carrion

The two models on offer are the fourth-generation iPod, which Apple unveiled in July. HP announced its decision to offer the iPod back in January. In March, HP began to offer a customised version of iTunes and Apple's online iTunes Music Store. Later that month, the company began shipping PCs with iTunes pre-installed."
 
Anyone else find double (or in this case triple) branded products pointless?

It's amazing that something so expensive could look so stupid...

Climb up a tree and die, please. HP selling the iPod is huge news, and is something Apple sorely needed. HP can put the iPod in more stores than Apple could ever dream of. This is good for Apple, good for HP, and good for consumers.

When it's good for a price drop you can get back to me... until then you can kiss my ass for that climb up a tree and die comment.

Note to P. Diddy:

After this fiasco of fashion, please do not make a limited edition digital camera. We don't need to diddy-style our photos by being able to insert you into any photo we take.
 
Faceless.. I'm confused about your PSX photo posting... what other company is on the PSX?

Is that why HP tried to get out of the deal as recent as last month? HP gets nothing out of this while Apple gets more marketshare and gets iTunes on EVERY consumer PC and laptop. iPod is in Circuit City, Best Buy, Compusa, Fry's, etc. Where else do you think this deal will put the product.

How is it good for HP? How good is it for consumers? I don't see a lower price for the iPod out of this. The deal makes no sense for HP but is a great move for Apple. HP got bent over with no lube on this one. I know because I was there when HP signed on for the deal.
 
Yeah the PSX thing doesn't vibe. That isn't a Sony PSX, with Tivo branding, custom designed in pink satin by Paris Hilton.
 
For the record, I find the PSX as pointless as this Diddy-fied iPod.

Any resident suckers here that bought one?
 
But... we're talking licenced manufacturing here, right? Umm... well, in any case, this Diddy HP iPod is some sweet promotion for them. What could be better than having your logo nicely plastered with diamonds on a hot product, and being flaunted by a name as big as Diddy's?
