It's good news that MS sees Apple as a threat here, you can count on their next version of mobile OS being a solid upgrade.

A win for all (save the Linux people...but isn't that what GPhone is?).]]>Sep 5th 2007 10:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/Sep 5th 2007 10:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/Sep 5th 2007 10:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/Sep 5th 2007 10:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/

Engadget editors please write a preemptive "Open letter to Microsoft" instructing them to not build a Zune phone, like you did for the Palm Foleo.]]>Sep 5th 2007 10:22AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/Case 1: Windows Mobile 6. Ok, it's not hardware, but lets couple it with Sprint Mogul. The Mogul is better than the iphone in almost every technical aspect except size... it's thicker. It takes addon software to make WM6 elegant.

Case 2: It seems Zune designers started with specs, then made the PCBs for the guts, ran out of time and crammed them in a small plastic box. Its what grade schoolers do for science projects.]]>Sep 5th 2007 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/Sep 5th 2007 10:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/05/microsoft-exec-rekindles-iphone-rival-rumors-gives-zune-a-b/
