If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

I've to say that I, personally, enjoy the way in which the Commerzbank model turned out. To take two manufacturers and mildew them into 1 is often complicated, but th is alternative looks so straightforward. That is certainly kinda the stage even though is notit? :O)

What I wouldnt give to have a debate with you about this. You just say so many things that come from nowhere that Im fairly sure Id have a fair shot. Your weblog is fantastic visually, I mean individuals wont be bored. But other people who can see past the videos as well as the layout wont be so impressed along with your generic understanding of this topic.
