HP To Start Selling Its iPod

Posted by timothy on from the it-isn't-even-blue dept.

Dozix007 writes "Uberhacker.Com is reporting that HP said Friday it will start selling its version of the iPod in September. HP's white iPod will be sold in a 20-gigabyte and 40-gigabyte version for $299 and $399 respectively. Apple's prices are the same. It is essentially a clone of the current design, with no real modification."

    I tell you what. As a life time Apple user, HP hit a soft spot with me. Supporting an Apple product, albeit with their name on it, says a lot to me. When my wife and I get a new computer for her, it will be HP. Let's hope they bundle one of those iPods with it!

    It's because Apple has managed to build an extremely valuable brand. People don't want a music players with the capabilities of the iPod. They want iPods.

    Whoah! You'll suck down anything Jobs exudes, eh?
