Gizmodo lands a Microsoft Zune spyshot - and more!
Been looking for an MS Zune spyshot? Right here, dudes!
Okay, so there have been viral videos of the Zune which were nto really viral videos for the Zune, lots of rumor mongering, lots of speculation on Wi-Fi, FM, video capabiities, Zune vs iPod et al. Here is a quick round up of what have seen so far from the internets.
The best news so far - Zuneinsider says that the Microsoft Zune WILL have video capabilities. So that sorta brings it on the same lavele as the iPod. Yes, Microsoft might pay for all thsoe songs you have already purchased through iTunes so you can mroe reason to switch to the Zune. Damn good.
What's not so damn good? The looks. In B/W (the spyshot which Gizmodo carried is in black and white, as every single Zune is color-coded by MS, so if anyone photographs it, the leak can be traced to the spy.), it looks dull. We have seen the color pictures before - and it looked dull then too.
Then, Gizmodo says that the scroll wheel is not a scrollwheel. its a set of four buttons. Some may like it, some may not. The Zune screen looks large, and the user itnerface is similar to that of Windows Media Center or Windows Media Player.
The MS Zune also has a built in FM receiver and transmitter, making it easy to connect it to your car.
That's all for new - we shall post any new info that comes our way here.
