Steve Ballmer makes impromptu Zune HD showing, people faint

I am getting one. If the woman is nearby – I’d like one of those if you’re let me have one.

IT LOOKS BLOODY LOVELY.

IT’S GOT NO PHONE.

And it’s not going to have any easily accessible games judging by that form factor.

/has an mp3 player with a screen that good already.

No phone? Whats the point then?

I don’t really care how good or bad it is atm, because it’s US only, apparently, so it doesn’t look like they want my money anyway.

No phone

I don’t get the comments. I mean admittedly I’m not likely to buy this sort of thing… but surely this is more like the iPod Touch than the iPhone?

In all fairness i dont see what the point of the Ipod Touch is either without a phone…
On a side-note this just like one of those parodies about phones having ridiculous amounts of features apart from the actual phone abilty.

Geki – you can buy an iPod+an average cell phone for the price of iPhone..

Yet dont most average phones do MP3 player these days to?

well, a shitty one – yeah.

DaMan – i don’t know what you mean by a shity one
Sony Erickson, Nokia those aren’t shitty my friend

well, they’re shitty compared to iPod aren’t they? I’m talking about the average priced ones.

and anyway, I can’t see how you can compare a PDA that’s iPod Touch to a media playback function in a mediocre cell phone.

I, for one, would love to know the rest of Zune HD’s specs before making up my mind, but it DOES look lovely.

late to the party but it looks ok. would still choose a touch over it though.

I love my Ipod touch, it never bothers me that its not a phone. Its like a little laptop, its a great little system.
The new Zune will need something special to get me to want it.
