If your referring to this it is an Apple iPod being sold by HP and is formated for windows instead of Mac:

HP has always had their logo on the back of the iPod w/ the Apple logo.

Thnaks.....I still think I'm better off with an apple...I'm planning to buy a shuffle soon to accompany my 4GB mini....(for running purposes) and wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on something special with the hp iPods. Thanks again....

What I heard on the news is that hp is getting rid of the last of the iPods that they have in stock.
Here's a mention of it here:
