I assume you mean the Zune, not the Zen. The Zen is the Creative range of MP3 players. In fact, if this is Microsoft's thinking, wouldn't it make more sense for MS to acquire Creative given their expertise in MP3 devices? Surely there'd also be less problem with competition authorities as MS and Creative have even less product line cross-over. Maybe this will start a rumour and increase Creative's share price :D -- DoomWolf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DoomWolf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=42209 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
