The demo spanned a 4-5 minute period but I cut out about 2 minutes of waiting for the sync...
The Zune 2 can wirelessly sync with your library on your PC.

Here I have a video of the same video playing on the Zune 2 80gb, Zune 2 4GB, and the Zune 1 30GB.

This is the unboxing and comparison video for Got Zune of the 8GB Microsoft Zune 2 Flash Player.

These will go on sale today for ~$150 for a 4GB Model and ~$200 for the 8GB model. They come in Pink, Green, Black and Red. The 80GB Model only comes in black retail.

I thought I would share one of the clips from the Sandisk Block Party I attended in Hollywood a couple weeks ago. More info about this event can be found on my personal blog.

This is a short video but shows some of the seemless scrolling that the new Zune Pad allows for. I personally dig the new menu. It's still much like the original Zune, but it's a lot bigger and the animation when you click is awesome.

Thanks to Crunch Gear for this press video of the Zune 2.

Here?s what happend at Microsoft today, hands on with the Zune 2

Last night I upgraded Windows Media Center with the most current patches and installed the Zune Software. Like most of the software packages, it scanned all my drives and built a library of all my media supported by the Zune. The software the started a transfer of all this media to the Zune. I then used the 14 day pass to check out some new music. I ended up downloading quite a few albums to the Zune. If you are wondering? Weird Al?s newest, Buckcherry, Hinder, Korn, and some others you probaly haven?t heard of. 1700 songs with 17gb free now.

Day 2 starts with one of the most important tests of all, ?Does the battery work for me??.

I started the day at 7:30am and used a Belkin FM Modulator to pipe the Zune?s audio to my car stereo. I then got into work and messed around with all the media I transfered last night. (boy, I sure need to purge) I have been playing the Zune through some powered speakers in my office almost all day. It is now 3:00pm and it?s still playing. I was bored of the new albums, so I am now listening to the radio. The battery indicator shows about 25% life right now. (give or take 5% I guess)

If this charge, the 1st full charge i?ve given it, lasts until quitting time, we have a winner in my books. The Dell DJ Gen 1 did this test for 20+ hours, too bad it is no more.
