Diamond Prices Going Up-Again!

So what else is new?

De Beers is considering an increase in its rough diamond prices in the course of this year.

The Sunday Times in South Africa quoted De Beers managing director, Gary Ralfe, as saying that the scope for an increase in rough prices existed as there was no large increase in diamond supply at the global level.

To meet anticipated growth in demand for diamonds, De Beers needed to produce more carats and this would be the focus of its strategy for the upcoming five years.

Bet on several increases this year, folks, and corresponding increases in the cost of polished diamonds.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.
