CES 2008 - The Zune
When the first Zune appeared, I was not really too enthused with the design and chose to wait to see what would come in its second iteration. For me, that was a good decision because the newest version had great appeal to me … not only in its design but in its functionality. So I had to make sure I spent some time at the Microsoft booth to see the Zune exhibit and to see just how badly I wanted to get a second Zune to my first Zune company.
I was convinced …. I’ll be getting another!
Having the opportunity to check out all of the Zunes was neat:
There is a slew of pictures after the break … enjoy!! (I did!)
I enjoyed watching the faces of people as they discovered the possibilities of the Zune
There were a slew of Zune folks there to show, explain and demonstrate just how you can Experience Mobility with your Zune
and to show you how you can get the fullest experience from the “net”
There were a lot of accessories were displayed that looked really incredible. Here are just a few:
So if the Zune interests you, then you want to spend some tine over at GotZune.com. Chris has posted a short video clip of the Zune area at CES and has a myriad of other great things there for you to learn more about the Zune.
































I wanted to really like the 80GB Zune, and I still do, but the audio sound quality isn’t what I thought it’d be. I read reviews and people said it was good and many posts said it was better than the 30GB Zune and they’d focused on sound quality when they eliminated the EQ. However, using my Shure SE530’s I hear hissing as soon as I plug into the device, and I hear the hard drive spin up and static every time the hard drive is accessed.
I do like the usability of the product and the software it came with. I just wish I didn’t hear any noise.
