DO FUCKEN WANT!!!!!!

Now SELL THIS OVERSEAS DAMMIT! Or, even better, wack a cell module into this.
 
I wish they made it into a phone, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

One question, can you run any exe on a windows mobile handset?
 
^What do you mean by any exe?
 
exe = an executable file. Basically files ending in the file extension .exe
 
Oh no, I mean what kind of exes he wants to run.....
 
Well, I don't know if this is the same for WinMo, but the Zune HD is based on WinCE, so that may make some kind of difference. And I've heard several times that a European release is planned.
As for why it might not be a phone(aside from pissing off any company using WinMo):
Engadget comments said:
They figured they could sell millions of these for about a year or less, and then introduce the phone version, thus making the people who bought the original to pay 150% of the price of the first one, for a new feature that cost them 10 dollars a piece to implement. Of course, the cost of manufacturing would have obviously gone down in that time frame, so basically it would be even cheaper to manufacture than the original one. Progressive money making!

Makes sense to me, and if that does happen I will definitely be getting one. Alternatively, if it were available with KLEER, I'd be getting it September 8th.
 
No, those won't run on Windows Mobile.

You'd need applications designed for WM. Having said that, there are a ton of free WM softwares out there that are extremely good.

Which WM devices were you looking at?
 
This thing has it's own OS, you want customization, look into the Zii Egg. I'd buy this thing if it had more than a useless 32 gb... i filled my 80 more than halfway thru, they need to get large sizes into these types of players, HD is BIG...
 
Yeah, I'd like to see uber-high capacity players.

Shame not many people will buy HD players these days.
 
High capacity pmp's are rare because people want capacitive touch screens, which can't be used with HDDs. Also, a 64GB Zune HD will be coming out sometime next year.
 
I wonder if the Zune HD supports flac. I can't remember...

I wasn't, just wanted to know.
 
not coming to Europe sadly...or any other place than the good ol Us of A
MS shoots itself in the foot, again...
 
I just don't get why they don't sell Zunes overseas.
 
If they don't sell it to Canada right away they are super retarded.

MS doesn't want to sell overseas because then it might give them a chance to make the zune a bigger market and actually compete.
 
Soo... it's like an iphone... without the phone...?
 
So its kind of like an iPod.....with a touch screen? iTouch?.....iPod Touch.....

As for the the Zune HD, I hope that they will sell it in Canada. Spec wise, it seems amazing. I wonder if the Zune marketplace will be expanded to accommodate third party applications?
