If you are a PC user, get the HP, it has better support and offerings. If you want the Apple only branding and/or have a Mac, you should get the one direct from Apple. HP dose not support Mac formatted Apple + HP iPod.

Yeah, the only difference is the additional 'HP' logo on the back, a different box, and support comes from HP rather than Apple. Everything else is the same.

Apple offers free 90 day support, HP offers one full year. That's a huge difference, but I mean, I know no one who has had their iPod brake or need to call Apple support.
