I usually leave the introduction of new gadgets to my tech savvy friends 3biad and Marzouq, but Im not going to let them zune this zune for themselves anymore (sorry guys). Anyway, yesterday Microsoft revealed the new lineup of their MP3 players dubbed as Zune 2 which features pretty neat additions that some of them arent available in the iPod&yet. Here is a quick walkthrough of the new Zune features that will be also obtainable to old Zune users via a simple upgrade:

  • The newest additions are smaller 4gb and 8gb players with flash memory with sport video playback and wireless functionality.
  • They are priced at $149 -4gb and $199 -8gb.
  • Currently the small Zunes come in red, pink, green, and black.
  • An updated hard drive model will have 80GB of storage and come in black at launch.
  • New Zunes are due to release around November 13th.
  • New Wi-Fi features will include wireless sync with PC. Shared songs will no longer have a 3 day limit for use, but the 3 play rule remains in effect.
  • Photos as usual have no restrictions at all when shared Zune to Zune.
  • To improve on the social zune Zune Cards will be introduced. Each card can be personalized based on unique interest.
  • Zunecasts (podcasts) are coming to the Zune marketplace along with video content. TV shows recorded on Windows Media Center can also be synced up with the Zune devices.   

Why I Wont Buy It?

  • The Zune Marketplace is newssupraput.blogspot.com not as strong and user-friendly as the iTunes.
  • Is not compatible with Mac OSX.
  • No touch screen and Wi-Fi iTunes ala iPod Touch.
  • Still not that good looking.
  • Wont be able to take advantage of Wi-Fi sharing because I dont know anyone who owns a Zune.

Regardless, I think Zune is a good hardware and complement PC owners quite well. However, I still cannot consider it as an iPod Killer santa sightings because Apple owns roughly 75% of the MP3 industry while Zune only owns a mere 10%.
