It’s Cyber Monday, so there’s a lot of good deals out there today. But these three deals in particular caught our eye:

• Logitech’s Squeezebox Radio — $149 at Amazon. The Squeezebox is a fantastic internet radio that looks and sounds great. It makes it dead easy to listen to thousands of online radio stations. Works great with Macs and Apple Airport networks (full review coming soon).  Normally $199, but on sale at Amazon for $149. This is a good deal. Recommended.
• Samsung 52″ 1080p 120Hz Widescreen LCD HDTV for $1,399 — 52% off at Amazon. Samsung’s big-screen HDTVs are some of the best available right now, but it’s difficult to choose the right one. The company has tons of models with slightly different features. There’s several models exclusive to Best Buy on sale right now, for example, but they tend to be crippled, offering last year’s tech, limited connectivity or slower refresh rates. But the LN52A750 52″ LCD HDTV at Amazon looks like a killer deal. This box is 1080p and has excellent connectivity — four HDMI ports, VGA, component and others, plus two USB (for watching MPEG movies off a thumbdrive). It’s also got a 120Hz refresh rate, which is much better than last year’s 60Hz. And it’s 52% off. The LN52A750 is on sale at Amazon for $1,399.99 with free shipping (that’s a $1,500.00 saving).
• Dell Inspiron Mini 10v — $279 at Dell Home. When it comes to netbook Hackintoshes, Dell’s Mini 10v is your best option. It’s a well-made little machine and thanks to new OS X distros, all the hardware works right out of the box (including WiFi). Dell Home offers the Inspiron Mini 10v for $279 with free shipping (that’s $119 off).

Next is a 13-inch MacBook laptop, running 2.26 GHz with 4GB RAM and 500GB HD for $1,149.
