What's shiny and RED and hanging over Fifth Ave tonight?

by Laurie A. Duncan (RSS feed) on Oct 12th, 2006



The Apple Store, of course. In celebration of Product RED.

if I wasn't already snugly tucked away on the couch I'd head uptown to take some better pics myself, but I am sure lots of others will find their way to the inter-web soon enough.

Thanks, Josh!

Red iPod nanos a reality

Here is the picture that Dan mentioned in his updated red iPod post. Check out the new red iPod nanos, and behold Bono who is so cool, and yet sensitive, he must wear sunglasses indoors.

Apple, Bono, Oprah set to announce red iPod nano

by Dan Pourhadi (RSS feed) on Oct 12th, 2006

Reader Jim Judd tipped us off early, and AppleInsider reports: Just as Think Secret speculated last month, Apple is collaborating with its fave musician-gone-activist, U2 frontman Bono, and Oprah Winfrey (of all people) to release a red iPod nano that will promote an AIDS charity. According to AI, Apple will price the color-of-love iPod for $199, and for each one sold donate $10 to Project Red.

Bono and Oprah will supposedly unveil the new Apple product during tomorrow's episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show." And since this seems like an official announcement, one of them -- and frankly I don't care who -- better be wearing a black mock turtle neck and jeans.

Update: Reader tom points to an article on the Chicago Tribune website about Bono and Oprah's trip down Chicago's Michigan Avenue, including their visit to the Apple Store, where Oprah "bought 10 new red iPod Nanos." The picture accompanying the article shows the iPods already on the tables.

The real news here, though, is that both Oprah and Bono were at the N. Michigan Avenue Apple Store, which is only ten minutes away from me! Oh man, that's so awesome! They were so close! I'm freaking out, omg!*

*Please don't take that seriously.
