It's evident that the new Zune 2 series are a hot commodity and the discounted prices on the Zune v1. 30 gb units is being well received.
Here is some of the latest news on the wire about the Zune and the holiday weekend.
Puget Sound Business Journal (Seattle)
A Zune media player is the top-selling digital musical device on Amazon.com, outselling Apple. Inc.'s iPod for the No. 1 ranking.
On Monday morning, Microsoft Corp.'s heavily discounted, 30-gigabyte, $134 Zune digital media player was ranked the No. 1 bestseller in the Seattle online retailer's (NASDAQ: AMZN) list of top-selling MP3 players in the "Electronics" category.
Apple's four-gigabyte iPod Nano was No. 2, followed by Apple's 80-gigabyte iPod "classic" at No. 3.
Last week, the Redmond computer giant (NASDAQ: MSFT) introduced a new 80-gigabyte Zune player, but they're hard to find. Amazon's site on Monday said they're "temporarily out of stock" and no future shipping date was listed. Microsoft's own Zune site said the 80-gigabyte player can't be ordered until "early December."
I just read an article at ABC news that claimed the Zune 80 was the most sought after gadget on black Friday!
