Well, there it is, the iPod U2 Special Edition.

Frankly, I think it’s cooler than the iPod photo. I mean, who wants to look at photos on a cell phone screen? (Yeah yeah, AV adapter, etc.) I’m glad they’ve replaced Chicago, however. (Sorry, pal, you were just using too many pixels!) Now, I know the current iPod screens support grayscale (at least 4-bit, I’d imagine)—how hard would it be to get a nice, anti-aliased font, and maybe some grayscale reduced-size album covers, all in an update for current iPods?
