Hell yes! I was a first adopter of the 32GB Zune HD and I have to say it is an overall OUTSTANDING device. The UI is robust, the hardware is durable (no case and no scratches!), the screen is crisp, the sound is full. It is definitely designed for the music lover. The only complaint I have with it is the lack of apps and the internet browser sucks compared to an iPod touch. But every new app that comes out, I have become a little more satisfied with this already great device. 9.5 and growing out of 10 for Microsoft on this one.]]>Mar 1st 2010 11:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 11:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 12:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
Sorry, but are you kidding me? I love my 32g ZuneHD for music and videos (it's the best pure PMP in the market, imo), but the browser and wifi marketplace are pathetic. Luckily I have a Pre, so I can just use its browser when I'm on the go or about the house, because anyone buying the ZuneHD for its browser is in for severe buyer's remorse.]]>Mar 2nd 2010 12:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
It Is hilarious!! We were waiting all this time for this simple (and broken) app. They didn't even fixed support for hidden ssid networks. They didn't even release 2-3 other apps or games. Just that.]]>Mar 2nd 2010 5:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
"The REAL work has ben done by Apple and now all the johnny come lately have to do is order up some parts from an Asian vendor, apply a flashy UI and bam!"

Ummm, if I recall correctly iPods are made by Asian vendors (with child labor BTW) and have relied heavily on their "flashy UI" for their success. ]]>Mar 2nd 2010 8:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
FYI foxconn (the child labor company) also makes Xbox 360's. The difference is Apple cares where it's money goes which is why the ran the audit in the first place.

Let me repeat myself so you remember this time, Apple ran the audit not the government or a 3rd party. Apple knows it is paying for legal labor and they wan to know that they are getting what they pay for ]]>Mar 2nd 2010 9:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
lolz]]>Mar 2nd 2010 9:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Second: the Marketplace is 100% pointless unless you want to show off the graphical fidelity of your zune. Microsoft does not allow indipendent application development and windows 7 phones pretty much sealed the Zune's fate.

Other than those issues, the UI works well, its got great battery life, and has a beautiful screen.]]>Mar 2nd 2010 12:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
I agree the browser is slow and the keyboard I don't really like unless in landscape. However, I think WP7S is great for the Zune HD because there is likely to be a firmware update that will make the Zune HD similar to WP7S, like how the iPhone and iPod Touch are.

The device is capable and I think Microsoft is getting really serious about the cohesiveness of their products.]]>Mar 2nd 2010 4:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 8:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 9:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/]]>Mar 20th 2010 9:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
It's sad how they generally also screw up the iPhone or other portable device versions shortly after their main site update as well.]]>Mar 1st 2010 10:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Someone please tell me why this app is better than Android's.
Please.
And not just because the Zune HD is awesome.]]>Mar 1st 2010 11:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
The WinMo app is horrid as well. They recently did an update which makes it a little better, but not nearly as fluid as the iPhone app.]]>Mar 2nd 2010 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 10:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 10:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
Works fine for me...double check your Application settings on Facebook to make sure the app has full permissions. ]]>Mar 1st 2010 10:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 10:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
Facebook is generally broken and/or really slow. It's probably not your fault. The only popular site run by more incompetent people is YouTube. Seems you have to come in very late at night to get decent speeds on youtube. ]]>Mar 1st 2010 10:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 1st 2010 10:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/

Nope. Everything else on the web will load fine. pings to google come back in the right latency range. ]]>Mar 1st 2010 11:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 12:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/I have no idea what you're talking about.

Wow, you must be living in a cave :)

This thing almost won PMP of the year for pete's sake. It may not have the volume of the iPod, but it's definitely made a splash in the market. I for one generally grab my 32GB Zune HD over my iPod Touch since it’s much lighter and has a way better UI, it’s just more of a pleasure to use. Not to mention the screen kicks ass. ]]>Mar 1st 2010 10:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/Mar 2nd 2010 9:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/__>]]>Mar 1st 2010 10:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/01/facebook-app-now-available-for-zune-hd/
