Microsoft Zune™ Black (30 GB) Digital Media Player



This device, simply put, is amazing. I'm sorry, but I have to compare it to iPod, because most people have expierence with it. Hopefully one day, I'll compare other MP3/4 players to the Zune.

The Good:
Wireless capability (sadly not that many people have one though...)
Radio (The built in digital read out is great to easily find out what your listening too)
No scroll wheel (That's right, I said it. Personally iHate the scroll wheel, with the zune you can scroll through thousands of songs, without moving your finger, simply brilliant)
Screen size (.5 of an inch doesnt seem like much, but boy it really is! plus this is verically measured, probly about 2 iPod screens)
Unscratchable surface (the screen seems to be covered with very thick plansic, will withstand a key stroke, along with double shot plasic, resistant to finger prints)
Sheer inovation (Microsoft pull off more inovation than that of the iPod. It simply looks much more stylish, feels great too!)
Firmware! Updatable, anything could be changed! Games, more wifi ideas, anything!

The Bad
Size Size SIZE! IF you have a big pocket, then you're good. It wieghts not too far from the iPod, but is almost twice the thickness, definately something that needs improved on. The Creaive ZVM actually heavier and is a little fatter, so it isnt that bad, but hte only downside. Let's see some Zune Micro's

iPod...
Zune has become the number 2 selling product with ipod being 1st, this was achieved in just one week after launch, not bad at all microsoft!
