Here is some joyful news for Japanese anime fans who want to buy an iPod. It’s the (provisionally named) “NegiPod,” with preloaded contents from Magister Negi Magi. But the price premium means only the most committed will want to buy.
The NegiPod, on sale on December 25, is a 30GB white iPod for ¥54,800, a good ¥20,000 premium on what some would call an already expensive item. So what will your extra $170 buy you? Well, 38 preloaded songs from the anime series, plus two new tracks especially for you. And you also get a special illustration engraved on the back of the ‘pod, so it’s a bargain then, isn’t it.

Yoshi’s take: I’d bet that extra 20k on this thing never seeing the light of day.
