That “big” announcement that was supposed to come Monday never quite made it, but this info over at Engadget fills that feeling of emptiness from the “big” announcement.  Zune to get wireless downloads, version 2 hardware, flash player.

If this is a true, and it sure looks like a convincing spoof if it’s not, brings the missing link that Microsoft should have included with the Zune in the 1st place, WiFi that doesn’t suck. Being able to use the built in WiFi of the Zune for good things rather than having Judie Hughes, Matt Miller, and I spamming each other with our songs in close proximity.

The info that Engadget got was some screenies of a Zune running a beta build of firmware v1.4. The screen shows as 2.1.4 though. I sure hope this is real.
