Fox releases X-Files branded iPods

We know -- you've wanted an iPod for years, but you've always wanted one branded with your favorite TV show, and that 90210 version didn't cut it. Boy, is it your lucky day. Fox has released some "Limited Edition" X-Files iPod Classics and Nanos, ready for your purchase right now for only $329.00. You read that right -- you're paying almost $100 for pictures of Mulder and Scully. But surely if anyone's worth it, they are, right?

Unfortunately, as TUAW's resident X-Files nerd (well, one of them) Robert Palmer pointed out to me, they're branded with the latest movie's title, not the original TV show, so those who don't actually Want to Believe (y'know, after all these years, why doesn't Mulder just believe already?) will likely be disappointed. But since you can customize them with your name (or whatever else you want on there -- we recommend "Clyde Bruckman"), hopefully the movie's title won't concern true fans too much.

I love The X-Files on epic proportions. When I get some cash, I'll just get one of these to display. XD

The problem with personalized ipods is that your iPod is obsolete in a year or two. Who wants to spend extra money for a disposable gadget? You would be better off slapping a sticker on it.

The new X-files movie was pretty forgettable. I wouldn't support it by buying this.

Nice. Companies can print their logos on the iPod if they get some in a lot. Would be nice if Apple prints the names of the buyer on the back, like they did with the iPod shuffle.
