I can just picture how this production meeting went. There are two versions of the Apple iPod sitting in the middle of the table. One plays music and the other music and video. What if we were to combine the features of these two iPods, a Palm Pilot, a cell phone, and a laptop computer? Dude, thats a great idea! When could it be ready for market? Soon. What did you say, Zoon? No, I said soon, but thats not a bad name for our product. Lets call it the Zune! And thus the Zune was borncoming this Christmas to an electronics store near you.
Ive got to tell you; at first I was very cynical about this device. I mean, why do a remake of an existing product that is already a market sensation? The answer to that question is, because the Zune has features on it that make it the coolest contraption to come along since, well the iPod. Heres a rundown of some of those features.
I know, we all already know that it plays music and videos. But did you know that the video display screen is 3 inches (44% larger than the iPods screen) with the capability of a 640×480 screen resolution? Thats bigger than Dick Tracys watch, and definitely bigger than your cell phone...
