New iPod to focus on individual Universities

Apple has announced a new line of the ever popular iPod. The new version will come pre-loaded with the fight song, video clips and photos pertaining to individual colleges and universities. I was a bit disappointed to learn that Michigan State is the first University to be released. It is an iPod touch, pre-loaded with the fight song, Sparty photos, and a movie clip of the ever annoying "What is your occupation??? SPARTAN!" that they play every 5 minutes at football games. I'm wondering if it will also include a training video from hockey coach Rick Comley teaching the fine art of diving. He is definitely the leading mind in college hockey on that subject! Anyway, back to the actual iPod - it was made available this week on Apple.com and should be in local retailers by early May. Here is a sneak peak at the new advertisement:
