Most WordPress bloggers are using the DealDotCom plugin by BlueFur. It gives you a choice between a static or dynamic image and has a number of styling options. As with all beta software, it still has a few bugs. And, it has not been updated since last September. You can see it running further down on the sidebar.
If you are not using WordPress or just want a basic DealDotCom widget, you can use the free widget (shown here) by Adholic. Just copy & paste the widget code into the HTML source of your website then insert your affiliate ID. You can even make a few styling changes that control the width, font, and border.
In addition to HD-DVDs, the players can also play regular DVDs, DVD-R/Ws, DVD-VRs, CDs, CD-Rs, and CD-RWs.
Customers who purchase Toshiba’s HD-DVD players are still eligible to receive five free movies via a mail-in rebate. This is in addition to the two movies, The Bourne Identity and 300, which come in the box.
Sony has introduced the first OLED television at CES 2008. According to Sony, the 11-inch (measured diagonally) XEL-1 model is just about 3 millimeters thick and offers picture quality with extremely high contrast, outstanding brightness, exceptional color reproduction, and a rapid response time.
The OLED display panel uses extremely low power levels since the light-emitting structure of the panel eliminates the need for a separate light source. As a result, OLED panels can be up to 40 percent more efficient per panel inch compared with a conventional 20-inch LCD panel. Additionally, since OLED displays create their own light, any mercury associated with traditional backlighting is eliminated. OLED displays can prevent light emission when reproducing shades of black, resulting in very deep blacks and a contrast ratio of over 1,000,000:1.

Amazon.com has introduced a Deals Widget just in time for the holiday shopping rush. Previously, these deals were only viewable on Amazon’s Gold Box page.
There are two formats available, sidebar and banner. The sidebar has two size choices: 120×400 and 160×400. The banner size choices are: 468×60 and 728×90. Associates also have the ability to select only the Deal of the Day or adding other short term deals such as Lightning Deals or Best Deals from across Amazon.com.
The widget will normally highlight daily deals. However, on Black Friday (the busiest shopping day of the year) from 6am to 6pm PST the Deals Widget will show a different deal every hour.
Panasonic recently announced the introduction of the DMP-BD30, the next generation high-definition (HD) 1080p Blu-ray Disc player. Blu-ray means incredible full-HD images, breathtaking sound and 5x the data capacity of DVDs.
The DMP-BD30 is the first Blu-ray player with Final Standard Profile, which adds a variety of new and enhanced features. Also unique to the DMP-BD30 is the inclusion of an SD Memory Card slot for playback of high-definition (HD) content recorded on camcorders using the AVCHD format. An AVCHD Direct Navigator function makes it easy to search for particular scenes. The SD card slot also allows viewing of digital still images in the popular JPEG format captured with digital cameras.
