For the first post of the year, I’ll return to my inane gadget musing of the past. Now I don’t own a Zune. In fact, I’ve never touched one. But I can tell I don’t want one … yet. If they ever get Linux on it, then the chances are it’d be awesome. If the wi-fi was actually wi-fi (as in, check your email and surf the web) and the “squirting” was just straight file-sharing, it’d be cooler than an iPod: the screens bigger and the battery lasts longer. As it stands, every body thinks it sucks, from GeekBrief to Leo Laporte to CNN. I would never get one now because it doesn’t work on Mac. Even the Zune-a-philes have lists of needed improvements, like Zune Luv. To boot, Microsuck has made some freaky ads.
