seen this one before... went pretty fast, if memory serves... surprised there's more left... good deal... peeps like the zune... lots of peeps... right?

I got 2 during the woot off, with no bonus and more $$$.. What kind of crap is that. Guess I should hold out till its on sell out woot...

put up some more accessories for the zune like a fm transmitter that works well with it like the ipod has

too bad the next gen zunes come out tomorrow

So tempted, but happy with my Archos. Still, for something that outclassed the same-generation iPod in every way except third party support, these Zunes have been a deal on Woot for a long time now.

Since you gave a rebate to the people that bought at $150, the least you could do is throw in the travel pack for those of us that bought two at $99.

BTW, the Zune 2 firmware upgrade comes out Thursday.

I have to keep telling myself, no I don't need one of these. But dang, thats not a bad price.

Gotta save my money...darn it.

i dont have a pmp device at all. i dont see the point, my moto q can play music and movies. i was thinking of getting one of these cause it just seems cool, but i dont know when i would use it, i am either working and cant use it, in my car and dont need it or home where i have a tv.

can someone please point out some ways one of these comes in handy? i am sure many of you have my reasons for not getting one, so maybe you know of ways these will be worth it.

also were they selling the browns new or refurbed for $79.99 recenty? i could care less if its brown.

also they should have DEF. given a gift pouch with each one, then i would have def. bought one regardless, this two crap is bull.

Keep the Zunes coming! At some point I'll saturate the world with my longing and the Zune will be mine!

If there are so many refurbs, does that mean these are crappy?

I'd like to jump on one for a Christmas gift.

so the travel pack worth more than the zune?????????????????????????

what the FAQ!!! i just ordered the white zune for my girlfriends birthday in december the last time you had it, now its cheaper, SOAB!!!!!

Just a quick warning. Or maybe I just have bad luck.

I have a Compag Laptop, Mobile AMD Sempron, Processor 3300+, 795MHz, 384 MB of RAM.(just listing system info)

Anyway, I got one of these about a month ago. My laptop didn't recognize it, let alone charge it. It would just flicker from dim to bright, kind of like an old light bulb that's about to give out y'know? Called Zune support, did some troubleshooting, they figured it was the Zune and I sent it out. I got my new one in the mail, it did the same damn thing. Called again, and it looks like I have a rare case of "mylaptopsucksorjustdoesntlikezunebullcrap-itis". In this rare case, the laptop couldn't produce enough outlet power through the USB ports to charge or recognize the Zune device. So if you have a Compaq laptop, and your system info looks similar to mine, think twice about this purchase. I was so dissapointed so I thought I would save someone the trouble I went through. But if it works for you, good for you, sucks for me. snort!

I, like many others, bought to soon. I got the brown one. Could have gotten the black one and paid less. Really wasn't in any hurry either. I'm using it as a Christmas gift, should have waited.
I don't really like this offering the same product each week at a different price. If I wanted a different price every day I would go to Amazon. I expect one great price on woot, no matter how many times they sell it. Lynn

I love my black refurb (rox0rz!) I got off here. Except I paid $15 more and got no travel pack. Come on Woot, hook up the guys that previously bought.

I just bought a new brown Zune from buy.com for $69 with free shipping.

Hmm, should I buy another now???? No, because they're just going to get cheaper. Got fooled twice now with these and not going to do it again. Still have the two I bought before all wrapped up waiting for Christmas...should have waited.

I got the poo brown one a while back for eighty bux.

In my opinion... as a former iPod owner... the Zune software is pretty crappy. It takes a little longer to figure out (vs. itunes), but it gets the job done. The Zune itself is a bit thicker than my old iPod and the buttons aren't all that great.. but you can't beat the low price of the refurb (rox0rz!) Zune.

I'm still waiting for Rockbox to come out with a build for the Zune. I hope Woot still has Zunes for sale when this happens. I put Rockbox on the Sansa player I just got from Woot and I'm diggin' it. It keeps my podcasts all organized and I can play chess or tetris on it too.

It's tempting, but I'm so happy with my little 8GB Sansa and nobody I know needs an MP3 player for Christmas. Besides, I already woot!-ed a 2GB Sansa for RockBox tinkering, there is such a thing as MP3 overload.

Maybe when they hit $69.99 (which one can assume they will rather soon). The travel pack is kinda cool, and SO CLOSE to a deal sealer.

okay i bought 2, but it doesn't say anywhere on the receipt that i'll be getting the free travel pack.

i'm still gonna get it...right?

Oh sweet.. I forgot about Rockbox... cha ching!

Got the POO brown one...Now i bought the White and the Black....I officially have more memory in these three gizmos than I have in my computer....Yea Yea......
I don't know why either!!:~) But i got a free pack of something!!

i bought a doo-doo brown zune when it was $79.99.

NEVER regreted it, it was one of the best buys i've made in a while, AND it popped my WOOT Cherry.

if you need any software utilties for it, i would suggest going to the ZUNE websites, and reading the tutitorials.

they have links where you can get encoders at the officail microsoft websites, so you don't have to BUY the software from other software companies like i ALMOST did.

BTW...on httpL//sellout.woot.com they have a nice extended battery pack i would highly recomend if you plan on watching as much deconstructionist propaganda films as i do on these little jammy-janks.

night.

I paid $99 as well. Woot! should hook us up with the travel kit.

C'mon Woot! do the right thing!

John

does this come with headphones and cord to connect to computer?

i feel cheated aswell...bought one black during the super secret vip sale, and then a black and white one later on. i feel like a travel pack is deserved for the people who purchased zunes prior to the deal, and would qualify for the free travel pack now.

I understand that prices change but this is kind of irritating, the people that bought the poo zune got a special code. some of the people that ordered a poop, got a black and a kit. I wooted the white from sellout and I get nothing.

I have to say, each time Woot! puts these things up, I want one a little more. But I already have my iRiver H10 that I bought here a year and a half ago, and I only use it occasionally. Must resist!

Do i still get the basic stuff i need to charge my zune if i buy one?

Rockbox is an open-source (free) firmware replacement for portable media players... check out the wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockbox

good question

I've already bought seven of these off WOOT! So...what now, three more?

Even with the new Zunes coming out on the 13th, this is a sweet stocking stuffer for Christmas (or whatever you kids are celebrating now a-days).

Dang man, sweet deal. I should buy another. I've gotten 3 out of the past sales and sold them for a $50 profit at least each. :D

Yeah, your PC Suxors

I just couldn't let this pass me by. I just about pulled the trigger on the brown one, then again on the last wootoff.

This will make a great Christmas gift.

I'm kicking myself for not buying 2 of these Zunes. That travel pack looks handy. It's all types of Zune goodness.

Not without Boot Camp/Parallels/VMWare. And at that, you'd be stuck with using the Zune software. If it's anything like Windows Media Player (which for some reason I have to use for transferring my Rhapsody-To-Go tracks onto my wooted Insignia player), then you'll have a much more rewarding experience by smashing your head repeatedly into a large box of nails.

Let's face it. You can't beat the price here, but what you save in $$$, you'll more than make up for in headache. Unless you find torture a rewarding experience, stick with your Mac and an iPod.

Yeah...it comes with a usb cord that it uses both to charge off your computer and sync.
