Microsoft Zune (120GB) Review - Laptop Mag

Microsoft-Zune-120GB-Laptop-Mag.jpg

Laptop Magazine have publsihed their review of the Microsoft Zune (120GB) digital player. 'The new Zune resembles its predecessor except for its glossy fingerprint-prone front and black aluminum back. The 3.2-inch screen trumps the iPod classic’s—though not the iPod touch—in size and vividness, but the Zune is slightly thicker, at 0.5 inches. We like the touch-sensitive pad and spare button layout, though we wish it had dedicated volume buttons. Sadly, Microsoft dropped the premium canalphones in favor of so-so earbuds. The intuitive interface hasn’t changed except for Marketplace and Games items on the main screen. Wi-Fi access to the Marketplace lets you preview and purchase songs directly on the player, though we’re still not crazy about Microsoft’s odd points-based pricing structure for à la carte purchases.'
