    Here's what happens when the Zune takes on the iPod in a parody of those "I'm a Mac" commercials. I first stumbled across this on CNet, but it looks like Engadget has a post up about it as well. (Thanks Mike for finding that!) The video does hit a truth or two about the iPod: the easily scratched surface and the minor difficulties about navigating to just the song you want. I love the iPod. You know I love the iPod. But yes, Apple would do well to steal a couple of the Zune navigation tricks. As for the wireless transfer? Whatever. I'm not so big on the wireless--although I was talking to Zune support yesterday and the guy said that the inside word was that wifi syncing and wireless song purchase from your flagged "inbox" might go live as early as January.
