Deal of the Day - 5/13/09

Hello All,

I am luke warm on this deal, but I am leaning toward it is a deal.

Woot is selling 30Gb Zunes for $84.99 shipped to your door. They are Microsoft recertified so they have a one year warranty from Microsoft, which is the same as new.

They have two features that go above and beyond iPods.
  1. They have an FM radio built in
  2. They can wirelessly sync with your computer
The forum postings mostly have people liking them too. If you have the newest firmware and software for it, it seems like a good unit, both free upgrades.

You can find that deal here. There is also a deal for a car charger/FM adapter here if you get a zune.

As an alternative Apple sells their own refurbished stuff on-line. You can find iPods cheap here. I have purchased a few refurbished items from Apple and they were all as good as new, and have worked for years. It is a good way to save some money.

Later,

John

When my wife's iPod died a year or so ago, I went shopping for a replacement. I looked at all the major players in the arena (iPod, Zune, Sansa, Walkman) and came to the conclusion that the Zune had the brightest, clearest screen. If you want just a music player, there are cheaper devices. If video is at all a consideration, then the Zune is tops in the field hands down.
