Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

Paint it Black
Like no other, iPod U2 Special Edition stands out. Jet black, it bears a prominent red Apple Click Wheel and, on the flip side, the autographs of each U2 band member. It comes with an exclusive U2 poster and, of course, the signature white iPod earbuds. As an extra special treat, it includes an iTunes Music Store coupon you can use to save off your purchase of The Complete U2. As unique as the iPod itself, this digital boxed set brings together an amazing 400 U2 tracks. Songs span the band's celebrated career. From Boy to War to The Joshua Tree to Zooropa to the soon-to-be-released How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb, it includes every U2 album and brings us over 25 rare and unreleased tracks.

All I Want Is You
Like other members of the iPod family, iPod U2 Special Edition makes listening to music sheer delight. The fabulous Apple Click Wheel lets you scroll through all your songs, albums and playlists effortlessly. And you can certainly keep plenty of your music on this 20GB iPod. In fact, after purchasing and downloading The Complete U2, you'll still have enough room for as many as 4,600 other songs.

No matter how much music or how many Audiobooks you bring with you, however, iPod Special Edition remains small and light enough to carry in your pocket: it's no bigger than a pack of playing cards and weighs just 158 g (5.6 ounces). It also offers up to 12 hours of battery life, so you can listen to music practically all day. And thanks to 25 minutes of skip protection, you can lead a really active lifestyle jogging, cycling, skate- or snowboarding without missing a beat.

What's more, with iPod Special Edition, you enjoy the best auto-sync in the industry. Just connect iPod to your Mac or PC, and iTunes takes care of business, keeping both iTunes and iPod in perfect harmony. Whether you've imported new tunes from CDs or downloaded and purchased them from the iTunes Music Store, iTunes will quickly move them to iPod. Create any On-the-Go Playlists? iTunes will spot those right away, add them to your existing playlists, and update play counts and ratings at the same time.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Damn! I'm impressed, Didn't want to be!, 19 Dec 2004
    This review is from: Apple iPod 20GB - U2 Special Edition - Black [M9787] (Electronics)
    I've had several other mp3 players including the Zen touch and other flash based players such as the Creative Muvo and a DMR unit.
    I don't think I have ever picked up a piece of consumer electronics that imparted the same feelng of quality and sheer "design" that this Ipod U2 edition does.
    I know its shallow but it looks and feels geougeous! The "complete U2" pack I've downloaded is fantastic, especially with the £40 off coupon you get with the player.

    Itunes works flawlessly on my Xp pro system and makes buying music online a snap, I have seen the end for high street cd retailers!
    The sound is amazing, I can't describe the difference it seems "richer" and "fuller" than the other players, ears are different I guess so that may be subjective.
    Using the Ipod is a " no-brainer". Instructions not required!
    Interface is a triumph of simplicity, Technology as it should be.
    Battery life is fine for me,(I'm getting around 10hrs) I use the ipod to play daily new's papers from audible.com as well as music so the unit sits in its dock, (an extra) overnight anyway.

    To sum up: Take it from a veteran of MP3 players, This really is the best! I never go with the crowd usually but I am reallly really impressed!

    5.0 out of 5 stars U2 ipod, 24 Jan 2005
    By 
    This review is from: Apple iPod 20GB - U2 Special Edition - Black [M9787] (Electronics)
    I bought a U2 iPod a week ago now, i think it is amazing. I looks good and unique! Its so much better to have a limited edition iPod rather than a boring White one! One thing i would say is, get a cover for it. As i said i have had mine for a week and i walk with it in my pocket, it looks as if it is a year old already, with all the scratches on the front, im slightly annoyed with myself that i didnt get a cover sooner. Apart from that, its amazing!

    5.0 out of 5 stars adam, 8 Jan 2005
    By A Customer
    This review is from: Apple iPod 20GB - U2 Special Edition - Black [M9787] (Electronics)
    I was very afraid about buying an ipod as there is some controversy about the reliability of them.

    My friends all have ipods they are absoloutally fantastic! Buy 1! Take a loan! Do not get a mini as they are rubbish i have 1200 songs on mine already!OH AND GET THE BLACK 1 NOT THE WHITE 1!

    Oh sell your headphones to a sad person who wants to look like they have an ipod and get some sony fontopia headphones!

    Finally if you live near milton keynes like me, do not be an idiot and use the belt clip, its not cool it looks sad and you are taking your life in your own hands. It just says steal me! GET A POUCH FOR IT IT WILL GET SCRATCHED. if you can afford the ipod you can afford the case!
