    It wasn't a Caddie, I would have recognized that. But it's a nice perk.

    Actually a Madonna vPod would be the best promo such a product would ever get. At least for us who remember the 80s.



    Not because Madonna made anything I liked in the 80s but she is one of the video icons from the pre-assbreastdancealittleandfilltherestwithhandsignand sunglassesandnostoryline

    Well, I did what I always do when presented with this kind of situation.



    I asked my wife.



    She did what she always does in these situations.



    She said I was wrong. It was a Caddie.



    So, I could be wrong about thinking it was four letters in the second name as well.



    I was sure bacause I read in AD Age last year that they and their company are doing these deals. The Mary Kay thing is new to me. Well, now we see why witnesses are wrong more than 40% of the time. We see what we expect to.



    I rather liked the idea that a middle aged woman would be driving around in a car signed by 19 year old Mary Kate.

    Yeah.. why not a vPod with _everything_ Madonna released! Music, videos, movies and books? I wonder how "Sex" would be like an audio book?

    what I can't figure out, is with all these Madonna iPod rumours, nobody is mentioning the fact that she already had one. Do you really think they are going to come out with another one? Maybe they'll just paint original one pink and rerelease it.

    As Jack Paar would say; "I kid you not!"




    Classic!



    The pink Cadillac is the top sales incentive for Mary Kay Cosmetics but they also have a pink Pontiac Grand Prix below that.

    Wow. At first glance, this sounds exactly like the U2 Edition iPod, but with one VERY interesting difference (assuming that it's true)--this time, the music would be PRELOADED on the iPod in question.




    The original article stated that "like the U2 special edition it will come preloaded with her entire music catalog" so it's obviously an error on their part. They didn't realize the U2 special edition isn't preloaded with songs so this was just an incorrect assumption.

    They should make a Jay-Z ipod, that'd sell well.

    This screams jumping-the-shark. it reminds me of the Claudia Schiffer Palm V, and we all know how well Palm did after that...



    BTW, Falco is dead. He got hit by a car while crossing a street. Fortunately, that means there will be no Falco edition iPod.

    So, again, assuming that the pre-loaded music angle is correct, it sounds like this means any or all of the following will be announced:



    --Apple has settled favorable with Apple Corp, and is now completely free to sell music any way they see fit with no legal challenges



    --Madonna has, amazingly, agreed to include DRM-less copies of her ENTIRE LIBRARY to be included with the iPod; and/or



    --Apple has arranged to allow for *official* 2-way music syncing between iPods and computers.



    If any or all of the above three are correct, it would be a major piece of news, I would think.




    or it won't be preloaded.

    The U2 one was orginally thought to be pre-loaded as well until its release. I expect if they do this (which seems unlikely) they will do the same thing and offer $40(or so) off her back catalogue.

    If they announce this.. I hope everyone rushes the stage and beats Steve with their ipod nano earbuds. A good whipping might beat some sense into him.
