Never been used but is out of box state.. Apple iPod Vintage U2 Special Edition Black/Red (20 GB) some info on item : Up for sale is the first edition of the U2 Special Edition iPod. I bought this back in 2004 when this edition first came out and it is unopened in the original packaging and shrink wrap. It has been in my home stored in a safe for 18 years! I'm now ready to part with it and pass it on to the next collector. Packaging is in pristine shape. There are not any rips, tears, dents, etc. on the packaging.  The iPod U2 Special Edition was a limited series of the classic iPod in several versions. The U2 Special Edition iPods are identifiable by a distinct red click wheel within a black front surface. They also feature the autographs of the U2 band members etched onto the back.
