A few years back, Hewlett Packard sold a licensed version of the Apple iPod through their retail and web channels. The only differences was the back had HP+ engraved on it instead of the infamous Apple logo. It was a nice experiment, but it didn’t last too long.

It seems that HP is again selling an MP3 player, at least on it’s website. The are carrying the Microsoft Zune, listing it at the retail price of $249.99, and has all three colors available. In true HP fashion, it each one has it own model number. They are the rx798 (brown), rx797 (white), and rx796 (black). Some how I don’t see anyone saying, "Hey, check out my HP rx796!" anytime soon. 

 

While this may not make a difference to the everyday buyer, HP does offer an Employee Purchasing Program (EPP) to many companies, and the Zune is included in this offer. I don’t know if the discount is the same for every company, but it could be worth checking out if you are considering purchasing one of these "iPod Killers".
