Microsoft has taken a fresh approach in updating its mp3 lineup. They are not actually trying to replace the original Zune (called as Zune 30) but are actually adding new variety to their lineup. Now what does this actually means is that the current zune owners who bought Zune 30 will get all the new features (yes all of them) of Zune 4, Zune 8 and Zune 80 through a firmware upgrade. This is something which Apple has failed to deliver for their loyal iPod users. Whenever a new iPod was released, the older versions didn't get any new updates or the features of the newer models which left their loyal users with no option but to spend more bucks and get the new device.
In what I consider to be a classy move, Microsoft is imbuing eac
Updates for Zune 30 will include:
>The new improved user interface.
>Ability to sync with Windows Vista PCs via WiFi.
>New desktop Zune software.
>Zune Community Site (a.k.a "Zune Social") to create dynamic Zune Cards and share their playlists etc. with fellow zuners.
Microsoft will also keep on selling Zune 30 along with their new lineup come this November.
The pricing for all four models will break down as follows:
Zune 4 - $149
Zune 8 - $199
Zune 30 - $199
Zune 80 - $249
...its great! Apple never provides updates for old iPods when new iPods arrive
