Bloomingdale's is featuring an exclusive offer on a Limited Edition Ultimate Collector's Box: Beatles iPod Set. The box includes a numbered 120G iPod in classic black, etched with the Beatles' logo on the front and Abbey Road on the back, and over a dozen original Beatles CDs including two masters and the Love CD.

The original description goes:

Limited Edition Ultimate Collector's Box: Beatles iPod Set: A Bloomingdale's Exclusive

Limited Edition Ultimate Collector's Box: Beatles iPod Set. The ultimate Beatles collector's gift. Includes a numbered 120G iPod in classic black etched with the Beatles' logo on the front and Abbey Road on the back. Includes 13 original Beatles' CDs, plus two masters and the "Love" CD, all with an engraved guitar pick. Packaged in a box designed by Psycho Bunny. Only 2,500 available.


As noted above, the Limited Edition iPods are all etched with a unique number. The package usually ships within 8 business days, according to Bloomingdale's. The retailer's policy is to ship anything priced over 200 bucks for free. As you can imagine, the Limited Edition Ultimate Collector's Box: Beatles iPod Set qualifies, being priced at $795.00.

Apple and its customers (namely, iPod owners) are huge Beatles fans, for one reason or another. In February this year, Apple updated the packaging for its iPod touch lineup to feature John Lennon on the box, following iPod touch box models featuring Corinne Bailey Rae and Macy Gray. The Lenon package showed that the song Imagine was playing, as part of artwork from Lennon Legend. Both the $279 8GB model (without the January Update) and the $299 8GB model including the new Mail, Maps, Stocks, Notes, and Weather applications, were Lennon packed.

I actually bought one and it is fantastic.The guys crossing Abbey Road is etched into the back of the Ipod, and "The Beatles" is etched on the front. If you ever wanted your Ipod with Beatles images, this is the only way you could get it - without committing copyright infringement. The box is beautiful - the inside cover has a collage of album artwork. The entire package represents how they guys were originally listened to (Vinyl records - box), to how they are now (Ipod). The guitar pick can be worn on a necklace - it is super cool. I highly recommend. Great gift no question. Also - you don't have to buy online, you can get the Ultimate Collector's Gift Box in any Bloomingdale's Store!!
