2 Comments

Well, look what do we have here, a 64GB Zune HD player, sneaking out on Microsoft’s Zune official website just like that, out of the blue, boasting twice the size of an ordinary 32 gigs version and maybe with some other interesting treats hidden under the lid. Regretfully, it’d be hard to tell right now since most details are slim or missing. So meanwhile, ’till it gets tangible, you can hit the bottom link  and hope for juicy info like price and availability to show up as soon as possible.

Update1: The new 64GB Zune HD is now confirmed and due out on April 12th for $349.99 and myriad of colors including Platinum, Black, Blue, Red, Green, Purple and Magenta, while both 16GB and 32GB versions to get a price reduction, that will set prices at $199.99 and $269.99, respectively. Press release after the break.

Update2: Apparently, it’s now available for your orders, at $349.99, as predicted, but won’t include the v4.5 firmware update preloaded, so you’ll have to upgrade on your own.

Apple's New iPod Shuffle Announced, More Colors And a Special Edition Version Join The Lineup

With Apple’s fifth-gen nano camera player catching today’s most attention, no one had really thought a new iPod Shuffle series could actually get into Steve Jobs’ busy schedule lineup and be released  – But it did – as Cupertino surprisingly announces a refreshing batch of new colorful shuffle players, spiced with a much welcomed price cut execution that sets the numbers on $59 for the 2GB version and only $79 for the 4GB one. Flavors wise, it seems the shuffle is now being offered in blue, green or pink hues, joining the already exist black and silver tints, as well as a new stainless steel “Special Edition” model, marked as premium and priced higher than others, at $99. Other than that, it pretty much remains the same with that voice over technology reading out your songs list, and battery life that plays your stuff for 10 hours long. Stay tuned.
