Well if you havent heard then you must be deaf & blind lol Microsoft is releasing its mp3 player which is wifi capable and able to try out songs from other zuniez across the street. I think the release date is Nov 14, for 249.00 at walmart.

well the package looks nice, even though they copied the kind of simplicity ipod had, but i like the energy the packaging has. Even though its a little big, much bigger than the ipod 60 GB or now the 80GB. They took on a new color brown lol.

I think this will do better than any other product other than apple just cause its microsoft. I mean what american doesnt like ms. But i am actually thinking of getting it, it has a huge screen also. NICE.

would you buy it.

All I have to say is Microsoft > Apple.

But, at the same time, iPod > Zune, for now.

And as for your comment, Micheal, on the X-Box making Microsoft lose millions, I believe you are referring to the money invested. Sure, they haven't earned it all back, but it looks promising. I read an interview with Microsoft about that very topic but for the life of me I can't remember where. Every company goes into tons of debts when a new product is put out on the market. You could even take the iPod for an example. It took awhile for it to catch on and Apple suffered for it. All's well now though.

No, I'm not referring to "money invested", I'm referring to actual losses. The Xbox division continues to lose money; that is, it has not only failed to make back the money invested, but it has lost money every quarter of its existence.

As for the iPod, no, I don't think think Apple suffered for it, at least not for very long, because it was a fairly successful product from the get-go. If you have evidence to suggest otherwise, by all means, please post it.

Lol, I had to quote this looking at the Xbox power house that is today, a year after this post. Microsoft is burning money because they can't figure out what do to with it all from the beauty we call the 360.

Let's not even talk Nintendo. Rich mo' fo's.

The Zune 2 is awesome! I'm gonna get it.
