For the first time, Woot.com is offering the first-generation Microsoft Zune in brown for $79.99 (plus $5 shipping). At this price, it’s competitive with portable hard drives (and you can hack it to double as one, too).
This is a great counterpart for your iPhone (assuming you have a Windows PC), as you can take your massive storage of music and movies on it, with your favorites on the iPhone in your pocket. Plus, with a little tweaking, you can auto-sync all your Windows Media Center recorded TV (for some reason, Microsoft disabled this function in the Zune sync app by default).
Normally, I wouldn’t suggest a Zune, but for the same price as a portable hard drive… why not.
