a blog of little consequence

In what has occurred as a nearly unnoticed event, Microsoft brought the Red Zune 80 back to the Zune Originals line-up this week.

Zune Originals still offers free engraving for up to 5 lines of text (up to 30 characters per line) but now charges $10 for any combination of text or their “tattoo” art.

Additionally, Zune originals feature the Zune premium headphones, free shipping, a large pouch which contains the box in which the Zune is shipped and free shipping.

You can test drive the custom engraving at Zune Originals to try on different text and artwork for size. Here are a couple I test drove. Due to the size of the screen cap and the limitations of my blog template, I broke each section of the screen down so that it can be viewed in better detail.
