A le, Bono, Oprah set to a ounce red iPod nano

Reader Jim Judd ti ed us off early, and A leI ider reports: Just as Think Secret eculated last month, A le is collaborating with its fave musician-gone-activist, U2 frontman Bono, and Oprah Winfrey (of all people) to release a red iPod nano that will promote an AIDS charity. According to AI, A le will price the color-of-love iPod for $199, and for each one sold donate $10 to Project Red.

Bono and Oprah will su osedly unveil the new A le product during tomorrow's episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show." And since this seems like an official a ouncement, one of them -- and frankly I don't care who -- better be wearing a black mock turtle neck and jea .

Update: Reader tom points to an article on the Chicago Tribune we ite about Bono and Oprah's trip down Chicago's Michigan Avenue, including their visit to the A le Store, where Oprah "bought 10 new red iPod Nanos." The picture accompanying the article shows the iPods already on the tables.

The real news here, though, is that both Oprah and Bono were at the N. Michigan Avenue A le Store, which is only ten minutes away from me! Oh man, that's so awesome! They were so close! I'm freaking out, omg!*

*Please don't take that seriously.
