    It's not like Zune was a really cool name in the first place, but this is too good. Looks like 'zune' means something ... um ... special, in Hebrew. From ISerializable:"I'm not sure how much the marketing people at Microsoft are aware of this, but "Zune" - their new portable player, has a very "naughty" meaning in Hebrew. How Naughty? Let's just say that if I were to use it in a sentence it could look like this: "Would you like to get "Z-une"d and have a cigarette afterwards?" In fact, it's enough to utter the header on the ZuneScene page to crack up a little smile if you know a little Hebrew :"Dude, You're getting a Zune!"Could be worse, they could have called it the Phantom.
