Staples.com released the deals (not yet active) that will run in its Cyber Monday Sale, which begins at 12:01 am ET on Monday. (These are not active yet.) A best bet is the refurbished RCA HDV5000 HD DVD Player for $49.99. That's the least expensive HD DVD player we've seen by far. (This was incorrectly listed as an HD DVD player at Staples.com; it's actually the RCA Upconverting DVD Recorder, model no. DRC8052. That's still a good deal, but it doesn't play HD DVDs.) Plus, shipping is free for all orders. Other deals:

• refurbished Brother MFC-5440CN Inkjet All-In-One Printer for $30;
• Techni Mobili Space Saving Computer Desk for $50; and
• GE Expandable 5.8GHz Dual-Handset Cordless Phone Answerer for $30;
