Zune portable media player is already on the shelves in the US

As Steve Ballmer said ( Steve Ballmer och. Cool people are my favorite among all the CEOs): “We will“ make ”the ipod, but it will not be easy.”

So, as promised on November 14, 2006, the Zune can already be purchased at a price of $ 249.99. The price is about the same as that of the "similar" iPOD. Critics of course reproach the Zune for all mortal (and not only) sins, but still have to admit it is really a new step compared to the ipod. If the product of the apple company is still on the evolutionary path, microsoft did (or tried) something new. So, the Zune media player is positioned as a kind of social device, with the help of which it will be possible to share its addictions in music / video / td with the owners who have been running Zune (the WiFi port is compatible only with another Zune). So, each player user can customize himself, enter his nickname for identification in the Zune community, broadcast / share / download / listen to each other’s media content. Opportunities open up the broadest. You walk down the street in the center of the city, turn on Zune search for friends and communicate together through music. And I think this will not stop the opportunity because of the opportunity to reflash the firmware, you can wait for new features from Microsoft or enthusiasts. In general, despite the fairly large number of minuses now, the product as it turns out at least interesting. In general, I would like this myself, although in our village its main functional capabilities will not be tried.
