Title: Anyone Have a Zune?
Post by: stegerman on November 21, 2007, 06:05:41 PM
Pretty sure my iPod is on its last legs...been very interested in the Zune 30gb with video. Found it for $89.

Anyone have one or know someone who does?

'fraid not, but I suspect coming off an iPod you might be disappointed with the Zune. Quite a clunky beast indeed, physically and operationally. Have you actually seen one in person? I might recommend it before you head too far down that road.

Funny you should link that...I stumbled across a website that recommended dropping it flat on to a hard surface from 4"...worked. Scary

Don't laugh. We do that kind of *feces* on million dollar semiconductor manufacturing equipment every day. Sometimes just reseating a board or plug is all it takes.
