This is a product which will struggle to make any sort of market penetration here in the UK. The Apple products are so much further down the development path, and I think most people want something which is proven and relatively bug free, iPods are now X generations down the line. At work I am a Windows user and from my experience, M$ products require many, many patches over the product life. Windows O/S, Office, Media Player, IE . . . etc etc. Quality control and product testing don't seem to be high on M$ agenda.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AntiMatter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 10th 2006 3:09AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Zune won't hit the UK until 2008?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/30/zune-wont-hit-the-uk-until-2008/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/30/zune-wont-hit-the-uk-until-2008/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm absolutely gutted, was readying the money for Nov 14th.

I don't know any so that helps! I hate everyone else I meet!!! I bought a pod 3rd gen 8gig for Â£159 as a gift and it is the dogs bo###ks. I was so freakin' jelous... and i was the one that bought it!! Figure that?? I really didn't want a pitiful 8 gig and having just bought a pod I wanted value for money. So one zune later 30gig and knowing I may only be able to upload cd's, I'm unsure about tesco download or even zunes usa marketplace- can I buy? Well Â£82.20 for a 30gig zune will suit me. 14 hours battery- I have a carm a motorhome and ciggy sockets aswell as a home. How long does a charge need to be? I hate the idea of being mr average, so as everyone has a pod already- I don't want one and Sony are going all mp3 instead of attrac due to pod etc... So put that pod down and get social with a zune.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[neil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 8:15AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Zune won't hit the UK until 2008?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/30/zune-wont-hit-the-uk-until-2008/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/10/30/zune-wont-hit-the-uk-until-2008/</guid><description><![CDATA[Antimatter- I have never used an Apple mac p/c. So are you saying they never have patches, upgrades or updates. Or just saying you haven't used one either. But because you have had upgrades through Microsoft, that they are not interested in quality control? I think you are mis-informed or ignorant! My recent given gift of a pod has needed resetting 2 times in 2 weeks so is it bugged and lacking in quality control? Pods are the trendiest mp3 play back handheld device in our world. But very unpopular in Japan and the asiatics that take seriously their role in development and production. We as consumer countries just bemoan for wrong reasons and buy what is best marketed rather than best product. Japan has it right and they don't buy many pods because they are not technologically advanced a product for the great Japanese. The good things in a pod is size and marketing]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[neil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 15th 2007 8:37AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
