Earlier this month, HandHeld agreed to buy user-gen site eBaum’sWorld. HandHeld said that by owning eBaum’s, the San Francisco company will have many as 24 million daily unique visitors per month, claiming that this will make it the sixth largest video site.  Taking the new name would highlight the change in its entertainment mix even though the Zvue brand started as a portable device business. The stock already trades under ZVUE. Release.
