David Beckham receives a golden Apple
If you thought your iPod touch was expensive, then you might be in for a surprise when you learn about this gold-plated touch. David Beckham of soccer (or football as it is known in the rest of the world) fame received a golden iPod touch from his teammates after participating in his 100th national club appearance. Engadget is reporting that this iPod touch is worth over 600 English pounds (or $1,188 US dollars). Of course they didn't skimp on the iPod itself, as you can see it is the 32 GB model.[via Engadget]

They should make iphones like that not ipod touches...

Now, English is not my first language, but shouldn't it read national *team* and not club appearance?
Beckham has probably played hundreds of club matches over the years - this is his 100th international match representing England.
that's what i thought!
it was his 100's game for England not 100's game for ManU or say ...Galaxy
it says "cap" not "club"
a "cap" is an international appearance. in other words, this is to commemorate 100 games played for the English National Team
That would be the football where you kick the ball with your FOOT rather than throwing it with your HAND, right?
