A share of the profits from the sale of the £400 limited-edition players will be given to the singer's AIDS Foundation. Sir Elton has ordered 1000 iPods in a range of ten colours, each of which has his signature lasered on the back.
A spokesman for the star said that he was "delighted" with the iPods, adding: "Elton does not usually put his name to a product but this is exactly the kind of thing he loves.
"It's extravagant and glamorous just like him. And, as everyone knows, his AIDS charity is very close to his heart."
Sir Elton has raised more than £100 million for his charity since becoming involved in the fight against AIDS in the 1980s.
