Last month, one of the 1st Pink Zunes made its way to ebay. I almost bid on it, but I knew it was going to be more expensive than I think it's worth to own part of history. Believe it or not, that <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/PINK-Zune-30-GB-MP3-Player-RARE-1-of-100-Limited_W0QQitemZ220052343929QQihZ012QQcategoryZ14 7175QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank"><strong>auction</strong></a> for 2/100 only went for $761.00.

The 1st one on ebay stated that the box pictured the white Zune, but clearly said Pink on the bottom of the box (<a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220052343929&i ndexURL=4&photoDisplayType=2#ebayphotohosting" target="_blank">link</a>), near the UPC. I went to Target and Wal Mart last week to check their stock, obviously, no luck. Anyhow, I wanted to clear the air on this situation before someone has people thinking that Microsoft employees are selling their "swag". If you get yourself a Pink Zune and you don't want to keep it, I am offering a $500 bounty for one! In another note, I found a link to a comparison of the Zune vs. iPod on Cnet TV when browsing <a href="http://www.gizmodo.com/gadgets/press/zune-loses-to-ipod-by-1-point-222446.php" target="_blank">Gizmodo</a>. This is a nice video, hope you enjoy it. ( <a href="http://www.cnettv.com/9710-1_53-24992.html" target="_blank"><strong>See video</strong></a> )
