For those of you that like the Zune. MS announced new versions yesterday...

We're expanding our family of devices with the addition of three new digital media players: Zune 4GB, Zune 8GB and Zune 80GB. The sleek, black Zune 80GB hard-drive model has a bright 3.2-inch screen and comes with new Zune Premium Headphones; the ultraportable Zune 4GB and Zune 8GB flash models are both available in pink, green, black and glossy red.

All new media players feature:

Wireless sync [1]
Extended wireless sharing [2]
New innovative touch controls
A built-in FM tuner
Recorded television content to go [3]
And more…
The Zune Social
Launching this November, Zune Social is a beta online community that’ll give members a place to share their music tastes with others.

Zune Marketplace
Zune software and Zune Marketplace get a dramatically different new look and feel this November, too.

New Accessories
Zune will be offering a new line of accessories to help consumers get the most from their Zune. Original Zune accessories will work with new Zune devices and new accessories will also work with the Zune 30GB. View new accessories.

Current Zune Users
Current Zune users will be able to upgrade and enjoy the new Zune software and Zune Marketplace on their PCs, plus new firmware for their devices as well. We will notify users in November that they're in need of an upgrade.

Available at stores in November, the new Zune devices are priced from $149 to $249. [4]

Looks good but since they won't sell them here in europe, im sticking to apple ipods.

I hope the Zune 2 is enabled as an EXHDD. They also need to force car stereo makers to start making Zune direct hookup kits.
The ipod is about the most overrated electronic ever and MS are the only ones with enough dough to try and stand up to apple.
