I have just as many Sandisk players as I do Zunes also, 3 each. I hate to see either of them lose. </p> <p>Well just to make it fun, I will make a promise too. If Carmella has to shave her head (even if she doesn't actually follows through), I will go out and get a Zune Tattoo on my left arm. Seriously. Let me know Carmella. </p> <p>Good Luck Carmella.</p> <p>Source : <a href="http://blogs.zdnet.com/Berlind/?p=820" target="_blank">ZDnet</a> via <a href="http://gizmodo.com/gadgets/zune/sandisk-pr-spokesperson-vows-to-shave-head-if-zune-is-2-this-christmas-308915.php" target="_blank">Gizmodo</a></p><P><P><a href="http://mobilitysite.com/?p=7465">View Original Blog Post</a>
