Isn't appearing on Woot.com the equivalent to "jumping the shark" for a product?
If so, the graphic on the Zune is SO appropriate
I think I recall someone actually suggesting that a pool be started to determine how long it would be before the Zune ended up on Woot... and this was at the time it was first released.

I was going to say the same thing, Jem; I remember someone tagging the line, "Zune: Made for WooT".

Is the graphic a joke by Woot or is that what MS really displays on the screen?

I'm guessing it was made by Woot. They've been known to populate the sample screens of other products with off-beat, bizarre or obscure pop culture references. The "flavor" of that image is in keeping with their style.

overpriced.

I hope they don't have more than 5.
It'll be weeks before woot has something new.

I had no idea what was meant by "jumping the shark", but now I understand...

For anyone else as ignorant as I am...
