    Hey!

    Here we go again! :D :D

    at woot.com....another....


    www.woot.com

    The *sirens* are going....

    Look's like woot.com is having.....a

    woot..woot..Woot...OFF


    Meaning...whereas instead of a *One Day Daily Deal*... A succession of products are available for a period of unannounced length, usually 24–72 hours!

    This mode is indicated by rotating lights and a bar displaying the percentage of product's stock remaining. When one product sells out, it is replaced within a minute or two by a new product.

    And, Woot never gives the exact quantity available until after the item has sold out....Luv Yah WoOT!

    Keep checking back... You never know what good *tech deal* you may be able to find & buy    !

    Download: Wootalyzer (gives you an estimated quantity left for sale, and will also estimate how long it will take to sell out).

    I hope they put up those helicopter alarm clocks again (as they do almost every Woot-off). It would make a great gag-gift for those I may not be able to real gifts to.

    If they list the ATI600 USB TV Tuner you guys should pick it up. I bought it last month and it's really nice for $30. Though no QAM. Works perfect in Windows 7 Media Center, but the remote should be replaced.
