Forget May, Pink Zune available now
We've had our fair share of Zune gripes lately, but there's nothing not to love here: you can pick up one of those new pink Zune models now at Amazon, instead of waiting for the promised May release date. You know the drill by now, we're sure. $250, "limited run" of 100k, doubleshot casing won't save your life but it doesn't look bad neither.[Via Zune Scene]
Official Pink Zune gets 100,000 unit production run
Yes, that light pink rectangle you're looking at is an official shot of the Pink Zune, in all its magnenta-ish glory. We all knew it was coming -- and we've seen the rather more garish 100-unit hot pink Zune before -- so this isn't exactly the biggest news 'round these parts. No, if Microsoft really wanted to impress us, they'd take their minds off planning a targeted, 100,000 unit production run of pink cases and set their mind to really fixing the Zune. One of the fixes is sorta down already, but there's at least four more things that we think need to change in order for the social to get more members. Last time we checked, a Zune in a lighter shade of pink wasn't one of them, and neither was one in red.
Zune in pink (and orange)
A pink Zune, already? Normally a company goes limited edition pink around the time the product buzz reaches an unsettling hush, not on product launch day. However, this and an orange Zune were apparently delivered as gifts for those helping Microsoft push the ol' girl out the door. Just don't be surprised to see these new colors announced over the next few months, you know, when Vista is supported, WiFi is opened up, and the Zune phone and 60GB models drop. Busy, busy.[Via ZuneBoards, thanks Han Yoon]
