iPod Touch Gets a Pricey Prince Opus Limited Edition Version

With only 950 pieces available, the Prince Opus limited edition version hits the iPod Touch scene (storage capacity is obscured), featuring purple shade on front and big Prince’s symbol at the back, preloaded with an exclusive 40 minutes movie, made by Prince himself, joining the live soundtrack from Indigo Nights, which includes 15 tracks aboard. Additionally, you get a rare book of Prince photography, taken from Kraken Opus and offered as part of the package, that can easily attract worldwide fans, in case they have $2100 to shell out.

Philips Rolls Out GoGear Ariaz, Opus Media Players

Like there’s no recession, Philips launches two new GoGear PMPs for the European market, as the GoGear Ariaz sports a 2-inch display, together with a built-in mic, an FM tuner, and 4GB, 8GB, or 16GB of storage capacities at your choice. Additionally, it has four-pad buttons to help you navigate through the menus, while some other clickable buttons are considered to be working with Touch technology. The GoGear Opus, from the other side, is the bigger between the two, boasting a 2.8-inch display, a mic, Bluetooth, an FM tuner with RDS technology, 8GB, 16GB, or 32GB capacities to choose from and integrated BBC iPlayer support. Still no word when exactly these two are about to be released (probably somewhere in April), but getting them, you’ll have to shell out €79 ($100) or €179 ($230) respectively.

Update: Moments before a Stateside release, Philips releases more info, as the Aria goes for $80 (8GB) or $100 (16GB), while the Opus will be available for $100 (8GB) and a 16GB version in plans. The ViBE, which carries a 1.5-inch display will be yours for either $50 (4GB) or $60 (8GB).
