Microsoft Zune family album

With the second-generation of Zune MP3 players finally here, why not take this chance to gather the whole Zune family together? In order of capacity, we've got the Zune 80, Zune 30, Zune 8, and Zune 4. With Microsoft's generous firmware update for the Zune 30, both the first-generation and second-generation players now share the same graphic user interface, as well as new support for podcasts and wireless sync.

For the moment, the Zune 80 comes only in black. The first-generation Zune 30 is available (while supplies last) in red, brown, pink, white, and black. The smaller, lighter, flash-based Zune 4 and Zune 8 are being offered in green, black, pink, and red. Microsoft is also offering custom artwork etching for direct orders of the Zune 4, 8, and 80, through its ZuneOriginals Web site.

Review summary The Zune has blossomed from an ugly duckling into a worthy iPod alternative. The 4GB and 8GB capacity Zunes (Zune 4 and Zune 8) offer a bite-size version of their full-size, 80GB sibling. While the full-size Zune is a better value, the solid-state flash memory used in the 4GB and 8GB versions make them better suited for physically active (or clumsy) users.
