    New Zune120 available ($250)

    Currently up at Amazon (EDIT: not anymore they've since taken it down) but the price is going to be $250 like the Zune80 was. Only downside is they come with regular earbuds, not Zune Premium Buds.

    Also Fry's has the new 8gb Blue Zune and gives away some of the new software features:

      I might possibly buy one of these, 120gigs for $250 vs ipod 80gb for $300.

      I opened up and installed the 30gig Zune I got from MS points (puzzle games for 6 months lol)... I was pleasantly suprised. Love, love the screen. Lack of scroll wheel bugs me for the 30gig and the musicstore is kinda meh.

        I sent you a PM with my review of the 80gb that I had done at the beginning of the year. Hopefully that helps.

          I just bought the 80gb off amazon less than a month ago. Guess what? It's being returned tomorrow and I'm getting the 120gb from amazon now since it is only $10 more than what I spent for the 80gb.

              Here is a review that I had done of the 80gb back in January. The 80gb and 120gb are pretty similar from what I read, except a few minor differences with the 120gb.

                Had it for almost a year and I love it. Its the best High Capacity MP3 player out. That is unless Apple introduces a 64 bit Ipod Touch today.

                  If its a 64 bit Touch, then you can get a song or two on there. J/k

                      Looks like I'll be getting a Zune soon, then.

                          Apparently with the new Zunes (and all of them once the firmware updates) you can stream songs from the marketplace without ever downloading them to your Zune or PC. 30 seconds if you're a normal member, or the whole song if you have Zune Pass (unlimited downloads monthly subscription). You could already do this in the software but its nice to be able to do that on the go.
