Zune. The new Yawn
So I have to ask -
Zune This November with VoIP Om MalikMicrosoft Zune rumors continue to swirl. Engadget is reporting that Microsoft’s “seamless music experience†device/service, Zune will launch on November 14, presumably with much fanfare. Engadget says that the device is going to have a 30 GB storage device and will have a FM Tuner along with Wi-Fi.
Does anybody give a rabbit’s fart that Microsoft finally sald me too in response to the iPod? Really? I mean, I confess that tie iPod’s pretty much a yawner for me. There were times I wanted one, but I’ve always had at least two other devices that did what I need pretty well. A $400 iPod today is simply the $7 transistor radio of yesteryear.
I just don’t get it. And Microsoft continues to unimpress…

Next step — try to conceive of the mind so bereft of personality resources that it requires video on a cellphone to pass the time without experiencing anxiety.
Crikey.
I have a hard enough time reading a text message or email on the screen and my cell phone is a Treo. I can’t bear to watch video on that. On the other hand, maybe I can bluetooth my death by powerpoint presentation to everyone’s cell phone in the room. Think of the savings in projectors!!!
