  • photos look bad, too much of a border around the zune screen I'd like the screen to go to the edges like the iphone, that looks dated already like something sony would design, maybe amazon could market it the wasthey do the kindle ie tell us it's sold a million units where in reality they've sold 50,000 but whos to know any different, the sell it only and they make it.

  • I'm confused by the line, "...the player then smacks you with what Microsoft call HD radio. In reality it's a standard FM radio...". Zune HD in fact has HD radio, but if the tuner can't find a HD signal, it pulls the analog signal. I have one so I know. Some stations even have HD1 and HD2, depending on the station and where you are. I live near New York and if I am outside I can load up plenty of stations with HD1 signals, sometimes HD2. This means one station has multiple (HD3 even) choices. It's a great feature. Posted by rob, USA
  • Pay no attention to mr. charles butler's comments. I don't know if it is an obsession but this person apparently trolls just looking for places to bash the Zune HD. Apple share holder are we sir? Posted by jonathon, UKRAINE
