Zune Originals 8-Gigabyte (GB)

by Evan Shamoon on November 24, 2007 at 08:46 AM



Attempting to differentiate your portable music player from the iPod isn't easy; so Microsoft has taken quite a literal approach, by letting users...well, differentiate their Zunes. Zune Originals are built for those who love to customize: Head to the website and choose your color, text and/or art inscription (there's both an artist series and a tattoo series, with plenty of options for each). The tech isn't bad, either. In fact, the $200 8-gigabyte (GB) Zune player has a great scroll pad, a sharp screen, and best of all, Wi-Fi sync, which means you can transfer music without wires! (You'll still need to plug in to charge, though.) The Originals also come in a 4-gigabyte version if space isn't really an issue (or if price really is).
