Zune 30 GB Digital Media Player

When I first saw the Zune, I thought it was a knockoff of the iPod. Well it's definitely meant to compete with the iPod but I'm not so sure it's a knockoff. I absolutely love the wireless transfer of songs, pics, etc, and the screen landscape capability for viewing video. And they come in black, brown, white, pink and red.Cool!

The Zune plays music and videos, displays images, and unlike the iPod, it even receives FM radio so you can stay on top of local news or sports.

The Zune is a 30 GB digital media player, but there's a twist. You can wirelessly share selected full-length sample tracks, playlists, pictures, or your own home-grown tunes directly from Zune to Zune (within 30 feet). You can listen to the full-length songs that you receive up to three times in three days, flag the ones you love, and easily buy them the next time you sync up — it’s like test-driving songs before you purchase an album.

Whether you're walking down the street, in a room with a bunch of friends, at a concert, at the airport, or on the bus, you can whip out your Zune and see all the other Zune devices that surround you. But if you don’t want to be seen, you can turn off the wireless function, or adjust the privacy settings to control whether people can see you are online.

The Zune's navigation is simple and intuitive with a scroll wheel and basic buttons. The 30GB device stores up to 7,500 songs, 25,000 pictures, or 100 hours of video. Playlists can be created on the go. You can watch slide shows while you're listening. And the landscape mode allows you to get the most out of the vivid display during video playback.

The Zune comes pre-loaded with a variety of songs and videos from hot, new artists, as well as some fun films and images. From your PC, you can browse millions of songs at the Zune Marketplace where you can purchase individual tracks. You can also read over 100,000 artist biographies and features from leading magazines including XLR8R, NME, and FADED, and you'll have easy access to Billboard Charts, including Billboard 200, Hot 100 Songs, and more. You'll even be able to browse what people in the Zune community are listening to by checking out the Zune Charts.
