What are people getting for Christmas? If online auction site eBay is any indication, a lot of people are going to be getting a Wii, Xbox 360 or an iProduct. The Nintendo Wii holds the top spot in popular searches on eBay and the Wii Fit comes in at number five. The Xbox 360 is the third highest search term, being nudged out by Apple's iPod. The iPhone comes in fourth and the iPod Touch comes in 10th.

Here's the full list: 1. wii 2. ipod 3. xbox 360 4. iphone 5. wii fit 6. coach 7. psp 8. bakugan 9. digital camera 10. ipod touch

Not only are the Wii and Xbox 360 among the most searched items on the site, they also have the most items up for sale. According to an article by TechCrunch, the Nintendo Wii has the most items up for sale with 2,056,866 related items and the Xbox 360 comes in second with 1,297,903 related items. The third highest? Sony PSP with 350,591 related items -- which means no one is catching the Wii or the Xbox 360 anytime soon.

Zune coming to the Xbox 360 marketplace?

CNET's Digital Noise blog has spotted an interesting job advertisement on Microsoft Careers. It seems that the Zune design team is looking for a User Experience Designer to help with designs and content solutions for the "Zune Device UI, Zune Xbox and Zune PC Application."

This is good news for Zune Pass users.
