Has everyone recd theres?

I hope so!

Im still playing around with mine, some of my friends thought it was pretty neat! Im still stuck on the small screen, go big or go home isnt that the saying? I do realize its because it is the smaller version, so I’m working with it.
I havent had a chance to move a big video clip yet, but ive done pictures and many mp’3s so far im happy, esp since Jake from another blog explained to me how to put it to ”sleep” whatever happened to the good ol’ off button? The sound if pretty nice, with the extra headphones they sent. As for the syncing stuff Im not there yet, Im still trying to figure all that out

Anyways just wanted to check in.

So far it seems pretty good. When you listen to the radio, it tells you the title of the song playing, so that’s pretty cool! I agree, the syncing stuff was a bit confusing, and I still don’t know how the playlists are organized. :S

I like the device itself. I have to get used to the menu structure since I’ve been using my Ipod Video for over a year and a half now. The big downside right now is the software. Microsoft have a lot of catching up to do on the autoplaylist/syncing side when comparing it to Itunes. This is a big deal breaker for me since organizing your music revolves around the use of playlists.

Oh thats great! So hows everyone feelin it?
Pros cons?
Ive used it for a few hours, personally I think eventually Id like the bigger Zune for the bigger screen.
Sound is pretty good, really easy to set up and navigate.

Thanks for the info! I signed up on Friday the 13th, received a call on the next Tuesday (IIRC) and also qualified based on site readership. It was fairly easy to tell what they were looking for, but I definitely fit into the focus group. For the record, I’m primarily a Mac user but as long as you’ve got a Windows PC to run the software on and are willing to give it a chance, things should work out.

For the record, I received the Zune package this afternoon. My technical review will be going live once I get a bit more experience with the device, although I also intend to talk about the marketing process a bit since I’ve never been involved in this type of campaign before.

I recd mine today, they just starting sending them out a little over a week ago is what I was told, who knows.
Anyways yes the 8gb does seem a bit small for what I expected, and the 80gb looks to be bigger maybe eventually ill look into the 30 or 80 but I need to get the hang of the 8 first!

I received my Zune weeks ago. My friend also received hers through my recommendation. You get to recommend a friend eventually. It’s a nice little player. I am planning to look into their 80gb version, the 8gb is too small. So essentially their promotion is working… I want a 80gb now! haha

Good Question. I haven’t yet. The girl told me I would get it last week, maybe there just behind, so I imagine soon probably in the next few days.
