The latest and greatest Marketing innovation of the 21st Century: Contribute to the greater good, feel good about it, and have something that unequivocally shows it to the world.
This iPod is going to become a cultural phenomenon like the Armstrong bracelets. Gotta give it to the guys at Cupertino for applying this great marketing strategy to the iPod, its sales for this holiday season are going to be huge! Congrats! If you own Apple's stock, if you don't and want to buy, you're late already. Our efficient market's already adjusted for this Bullseye, and AAPL is 1.5% up today. However, you can still contribute to combat one of the deadliest illness of our generation while enjoying your music collection.

One could also just donate $10 to an AIDS relief organization.
