Zunelicious - Zune 2 out the Wazoo!
<p>Ok, first off, I have always wanted to use Zunelicious in a sentance. My buddy and fellow Mobian, <a href="http://www.geardiary.com" target="_blank">Judie</a> named her Zune this and I have loved it since! Now that we got that out of the way, let's proceed.</p> <p>Zune Rumors have been heating up to a boil today. Starting late afternoon, I saw something, somewhere that said to look for the Zune 2 tommorow. Then like a&nbsp;wild fire, the rumor popped up everywhere. </p> <p>Crunchgear made a statement that indicated that they were expecting a Oct 16th release...</p> <blockquote> <p>There seem to be <a href="http://www.betanews.com/article/Microsoft_to_Debut_Zune_2_on_Tuesday/1191256215">rumors floating around today</a> that the Zune 2 will be announced tomorrow, but there's no definitive confirmation as of yet. <s>Our inside sources have hinted at it, but we're looking at an <a href="http://crunchgear.com/2007/09/19/zune-2-launch-date-confirmed/">official announcement on the 16th</a>. If this turns out to be true than our insider will be swimming with the fishes. </s></p></blockquote> <p>So, then they updated their post striking through all the "inside info" they had. Now, we are told to look out tommorow for the 160gb Zune and the flash versions! Yeah! </p> <p><img style="border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px" height="201" alt="zune-v2" src="http://mobilitysite.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/10/zune-v2.jpg" width="413" border="0"/> </p> <p>A couple hours later, Engadget posted a photo that looks real enough. If it was photoshopped, they would have made the photo look clear and sharp, huh?</p> <p>Well, look out guys... Looks like the Zune 2 is real and coming tommorow. As a gadget fiend, I am all over this. Stay tuned.</p> <p>Sources: <a href="http://crunchgear.com/2007/10/01/crunchrumor-zune-2-launching-on-the-16th-maybe-tomorrow/" target="_blank">Crunchgear</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/10/01/are-these-the-new-zunes/" target="_blank">Engadget</a>, and <a href="http://www.betanews.com/article/Microsoft_to_Debut_Zune_2_on_Tuesday/1191256215" target="_blank">Betanews</a></p><P><P><a href="http://mobilitysite.com/?p=7135">View Original Blog Post</a>

Yay! If only they added a custom EQ (read: not only preset EQ) then I'd be all over this like a fat kid on a cupcake.

I have been hearing rumors....but was waiting to see for sure (guess I have learned my lesson with Tilt release dates changing too much)

I ALMOST ordered an iPod....but a friend told me to hang on to my gadget funds....I hope the Zune 2 was worth the wait (or I might go order an iPod....not because I necessarily need one....but I must have my new gadgets!!)

I like cupcakes too!

I like cupcakes too. But I'm on a diet, so I only view my cupcakes.

I'll take a 16GB. Don't need all that extra space from the Zune, anyway.

I am looking forward to a firmware upgrade also for my Zune.....but I might be tempted by a new Zune

I purchased my Zune after watching the videos that Chris did on the Zune last November. I emailed him a bunch of stupid questions (which he politely answered).... and I decided to get a Zune...and I have been happy with it....

ended up hanging around Mobility Site and Aximsite......and look what happened... I am a news editor....

It's the Zune's fault!!
