The hardware in question--the Prince Opus iPod--is a purple iPod touch, just 950 of which were made.

Loaded on the iPod is a 40-minute video made by Prince himself of his 21 Nights performance at London's O2 Arena in 2007. There are also testimonials (is this Facebook now?) from performers like Elton John and P Diddy as well as fans, and 15 tracks from the artist's Indigo Nights live album. We don't know what capacity the touch is, but it appears to be a second-generation model, going from the volume buttons on the side. It also comes packaged with an exclusive book of Prince photographs, produced by publisher Kraken Opus--say it with me: "oooooooh."


Running for the recession friendly price of just US$2,100, it's almost as though Prince is crooning into your ear that "Money Don't Matter 2 Night"

A bit of a mixed message from Prince (fomerly known as O+->)... his last album was given away as a magazine attachment.

$2,100!? That's just way too much money for someone whose career high was 15 years ago, I'm sorry, that's mean, but it's kind of true....
