Salazar to formally resign senate seat

Sen. Ken Salazar on Saturday set the paperwork in motion to resign his U.S. Senate seat immediately after his confirmation as Secretary of Interior, something that's expected to happen shortly after President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration on Tuesday.

The announcement, contained in a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., is a formality that's necessary before Gov. Bill Ritter can appoint Denver Public Schools chief Michael Bennet to complete the last two years of Salazar's term.

In the letter, Salazar said he felt "privileged" to have served the people of Colorado.

"As I prepare to leave my post as a United States Senator, I carry with me a firm and unyielding belief that there is no limit to what we can accomplish, that there is no problem we cannot solve, so long as we remember that we are in this together," Salazar wrote. "It has been an extraordinary privilege to serve the five million people of the great state of Colorado as their United States Senator.  You can be certain that as Secretary of the Interior, I will work hard, every day, to continue to make our country proud."

    The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

    Apple now has Rhapsody as an app, which is a great start, but it is currently hampered by the inability to store locally on your iPod, and has a dismal 64kbps bit rate. If this changes, then it will somewhat negate this advantage for the Zune, but the 10 songs per month will still be a big plus in Zune Pass' favor.

    If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.
