The coming of the Zune
Nov 13th, 2006 | By Jesse | Category: general, HardwareWhile we are making our way through Geography Awareness Week, don’t forget that tomorrow the 14th is the release date for Microsoft’s new Zune, their attempt to compete with the iPod. While there has been quite a bit of discussion regarding the lack of podcast support for the Zune, please keep in mind that the Zune will play both MP3 and AAC files just fine, they just aren’t providing a built in podcatcher. Just use your RSS aggregator of choice to grab your podcasts and upload them to your Zune.
While the first incarnation of the Zune looks to be pretty much run of the mill for modern PMPs (Portable /Personal Media Player) there are some pretty interesting possibilities for future upgrades and versions.
Send us a photo of you with your Zune if you get one.
