Buy a Zune, Fight Breast Cancer

Charlie White — Thu, 18 Oct 2007 18:50:00 EDT

Since we're such breast fans here at the Giz, we wouldn't think of letting Breast Cancer Awareness Month pass by without a mention. The best news is you can celebrate boobies, get yourself a 30GB limited edition pink Zune, and fight breast cancer at the same time. Unlike some other charitable music-player-selling schemes that only donate a measly 5% of their proceeds to charity, when you buy a 30GB Zune from Warriors in Pink, 100% of the purchase price goes to Susan G. Koman For the Cure, thanks to the generosity of Ford and Microsoft. Breast cancer is no laughing matter, and we figure anything we can do to promote and preserve breasts and the lovely women on which they reside is time well spent. The pink 30GB Zune is $250 ($50 more than retail for a 30GB Zune), but it's for a worthy cause. [Warriors in Pink]

Zune Pink and Orange Pics Surface, Red On the Way?

You've probably already read our posts about the pink and orange Zunes that'll be rolling out in May, but the pictures we had at the time left a lot to be desired. Now the guys at Zune Scene have gotten their hands on some great-looking shots, emphasizing the Zune's unique (or is it?) "doubleshot casting" injection molding that gives the edges that uncanny two-tone glow.

Meanwhile, C|Net News says "a watermelon red version is slated for summer." Check out the gallery below for fo-reals pics of the pink and orange variety, and we threw in a simulation of the alleged red Zune by the Photoshoppers at Zune-Online. One thing's for sure, the Zune looks a lot better in these colors than it does in the currently available black, white and brown. – Charlie White

Pink Zune: Not Golden, nor Ticket

Mark Wilson — Sun, 17 Dec 2006 12:49:04 EST

With only 100 randomly dispersed pink Zunes in the world (have 100 even sold yet?), there are groups who will do almost anything (ok, just bidding on Ebay) to get their hands on one. Cue music:

Oompa Loompa Dupidee Zune,
If you pull pink,
You'll lose masculinity soon.

You should sell your
Pink Zune on Ebay,
Because the Oompa Loompas
Might think you are gay.

Hey Oompa Loompas! You of all creatures should have an open mind. But while we're on the subject, how does your species propagate anyhow? The first pink Zune went for $920 on Ebay, but the subsequent sale dropped to $760. Sell 'em while they're hot. – Mark Wilson
