Black Zune HD spotted
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Handhelds, Microsoft, Portable Audio / Video,
The Zune is available in multiple colors already, so it should be no surprise that the Zune HD will follow suit. In our post yesterday where we shared the Zune HD announcement, you got a look at what appears to be a platinum Zune HD. Here in this post? The black Zune HD. Here’s hoping they keep the blue and red versions around as well…but in all honesty, we just want this thing to launch already.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: HDTV, Home Entertainment, Hot Deals,
Just saw that Newegg has a nice deal on the Panasonic VIERA TC-P42X1 42-inch 720p HDTV, selling it for $699.99 from now through 4/30. What we like about this set is that, for the price, you get a 600Hz set that has deep colors, and fantastic scaling technology for bringing non-native sources to 16:9. It sports a 30,000:1 contrast ratio, 3 HDMI inputs, and ATSC, NTSC, and QAM tuners. Take a look at the Panasonic VIERA TC-P42X1 on Newegg, and use promo code TV4211 to get the savings.
