The ZVUE 260, costing less than a hundred dollars, has gone on sale on Walmart.com.

It seems like the budget player doesn't know what it's trying to emulate with a Zune-like name (although apparently it did patent the name before Microsoft came up with Zune) and iPod-esque looks.

With Zuners and iPod fans generally coming from very different places, picking a side and sticking with it would probably generate a bit more copy-cat success.
