Zune HD official
Here: http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/26/z...way-this-fall/
3.3-inch, 480 x 272 OLED capacitive touchscreen display, built-in HD Radio receiver, HD output.
I like the looks of it OK, obviously going for a more "industrial" "edgy" thing, which seems to be Microsoft's idea about all their consumer hardware.
I'm curious what an MS touch interface will look like. Just a touch version of the original Zune UI? A clone of Apple's, but "edgier"? A preview of WinMob 7?
Unless they can get some app mojo working, though, I don't see this as a strong competitor to the Touch. As always, it has some nice "features" that the iPod doesn't have (though OLED is no doubt coming-- if not in this next iteration then the one after), but it doesn't look to do too much more than the expected "me too" answer to the Touch-- which as this point probably won't do much more than delay the inevitable demise of the line.

The automated slave did post a minute after you, though, and I think you are arguably in the more "correct" forum.
Apple is the genuine artwork
Whay you think?
