Xbox360...no built in wifi...no web browser. Even if I were to ignore the lack of a web browser, for Microsoft to not build in a wifi and sell a damn $100 wifi adapter is insanity. What's worse is that that part NEVER got cheaper and its still up there in price. Even when they redesigned the Xbo360 they never built it in. Meanwhile lowly wii and Ps3 came with it built in. PS3 was expensive, but Wii isn't...how much are they actually charging you for a built in wifi?

ZUNE....pathetic.

Microsoft releases it with a crappy wifi share stupidness - Sansa releases their DAP with built in Wifi and the ability to connect to the internet radio. So what does Microsoft do? They redesign it, make it smaller, but never give it a wifi that can do anything worthwhile. That zune song share bullsh*t was here and gone in a split second. Then Apple comes out and puts Safari on their iPhone and their ipod leaving Microsoft in the dust.

Microsoft has no idea how to make a good product. ]]>Aug 18th 2008 3:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/
Does any reasonably intelligent person at Engadget NOT think you're a total jackass?

"As much as I love microsoft..."
"Microsoft has no idea how to make a good product."

Don't try to avoid grills by playing both sides of the field. You can't love a company that you believe makes nothing good.]]>Aug 18th 2008 3:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 3:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/

I swear sometimes I feel like going to Microsoft's R&D department and kicking the crap out of every single stupid copy-cat brain they have in there; If they only check out the ideas posted in thousands of online pages, they would be creating some of the most advanced gadgetry in the world, all for the same or less price of competing devices! God dammit.

Why do you, Microsoft, need to be so stupid?! In the Arab world we have a saying that urges "If you do a job, perfect it"; Microsoft is definitely doing lots of jobs, but they always ruin some of the most obvious and easy parts in their productions; it's like there is a specialized team to make sure everything that comes out of Microsoft has some crippled feature for the sake of it!]]>Aug 18th 2008 3:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 3:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 3:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 4:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/

i've had my zune 2 for about a year now and love it. personally, i don't really feel like i'm missing anything with the zune the way it currently is. doesn't mean they can/should sit. it'd be a little disapointing from an product line point of view if they don't unveil a zune 3 this year.]]>Aug 18th 2008 2:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/
I figure we're getting a hard-drive upgrade and they're bringing the software to the mac.

That's my bet for this year.
I was kinda hoping it would be 160GB over 120GB though :/]]>Aug 18th 2008 4:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 24th 2008 10:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 2:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 2:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 2:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 6:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Aug 18th 2008 2:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/Surely it hasn't taken anywhere near the position in the market Microsoft would have hoped.]]>Aug 18th 2008 2:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/http://www.engadget.com/2008/08/18/120gb-zune-slips-past-the-fcc/

You cant mean width... they are exactly the same. Hmm, weight? Nope Zune is lighter. And its taller too! Taller, lighter, sexier... I could be talking about a woman, but nope.

I do agree that Microsoft should release a iPod Touch competitor, no matter the cost. Its longer list of features just make it that much more appealing. Unfortunately I dont think they will this year and next year will be too late.

If you wear tight enough girl-pants to where .03" makes a difference, it's time to think about getting a bigger pair.

I'm glad the Zune is getting a hard drive update though.
