CES 2008: Microsoft finally launch the Zune worldwide! W00t!

In case you missed this not insignificant piece of news, Microsoft has finally relented and are bringing the Zune over our side of the Atlantic. It's due to arrive in Spring, which is a full 18 months after it was launched in the US.

The players come in 80GB, 30GB, 8GB and 4GB models, as well as featuring a variety of colours. There's in-built FM radio, and the ability to share music wirelessly with other Zune owners, although they can only listen to it three times before they have to purchase it. They can also wirelessly synch with Windows PCs.

Prices have yet to be announced.

Hi,

Thats something Microsoft is saying even before the release of Zune v1. But what we know for sure is that Canada will be the country in which Zune will be released in Spring.

There are really no more info about a Worldwide release...
