It'll only truly be any good once it's hacked. The way it handles DRM is absolutely ing ridiculous.

If it proves easy to hack and pretty customizeable, should be pretty ing cool.

I like that they really took the time to do market research.

They also use BT and Oakenfold in the marketing.

Pretty much hit the nail on the head there. iPod isn't any way near customizable maybe only a boot screen or some random thing but thats about it. Thats why I love PSP, hacking and customizing it to play more than just PSP games is awesome and the customization on it is a big thing. Should be nice with the Zune.

i read on another forum that considering the Zune has Wi-Fi, hacks could include using the Zune for SlingBox purposes? possible?

it's probably possible, i'm trying to sling a psp at the moment, i'm sure if Zune is Wifi, you'll be able to sling that as well they just need to build an application that the zune can interface with in order to pull the signal from the internet/sling box
