Microsoft Zune MP3 Player Interface Revealed

bain writes to tell us that iLounge has put up details on the Zune, Microsoft's MP3 player. According to the article, "Zune is a bit bigger than a standard 30GB iPod, and apparently made entirely of plastic." Interestingly, Microsoft forgoes a touch-sensitive scrollwheel in favor of wheel-shaped buttons. Included are WiFi capabilities, an FM tuner, and (in stark contrast to the iPod) a white-on-black color scheme. The 30GB model is expected to sell for $300.

    I'll probably buy one. iTunes sucks, the iPod is too expensive, the iPod touch scroll thing is a PITA, and MS makes kick ass hardware. Shove your "fanboi" thing up your ass and use your brain. Some people (like me) will like it a hell of a lot better.
