Rumor: ZuneHD to Come in 16/32GB, Sept. 8th
June 24, 2009 by ACE
The Giz has been tipped off with this marketing image showing the ZuneHD coming in 16 and 32 GB flavors. The tipster also says the device will be released Tuesday, September 8th instead of Sept. 5th we’d heard earlier. The capacities, which we also heard previously would be disappointingly conservative, and a disappointment for those favoring a 64GB model. What say you? Be sure to leave a comment on your thoughts!
One good thing about the image is that it shows both the black and platinum versions of the ZuneHD, which will be a welcomed choice for would-be buyers! Sign me up for a black one!

now i just need pricing
2) I have a friend whose uncle(at least what he told me)who works for M$ who also said it is 16 and 32 gb also. If they want the ZuneHD to become a Zune replacement, they'll need a higher capacity. But the whole slim part will be removed from the equation though.
I say this b/c hdds don't work with capacitive touch screens. I think that putting 16/32gb versions only is not only smart but perfect. Now all it needs is an application marketplace

Sorry if that sounded kind of pissy, I fly home from the US on September 7th. Yeah.
Its not planning to be a zune replacement, just an alternative. If people absolutely need a ton of space, Then hard drive players are best for them. Its just like apple with Ipods and the itouch.
But On topic, Awesome! If i got it, I wouldnt be upgrading, or downgrading, probably, as i already use the Zune16 all the time. Though if i have the money to splurge, im getting the 32 gig. In black, Of course.
now i just need pricing
everyone knows you want a 64 gig version. that isnt happening, so stop complaining. weve heard it, people have told you why its not a possibility, its done. so please stop. talk about something positive.
i for one hope that the 32 gig comes out with black as well. and hopefully there will be an app section in the marketplace (assuming they finally bring it to Canada!). but i also hope zune doesnt forget about theyr other models. maybe they could make some HDD models with a few of te same features. a web browser maybe (though it would be annoying with no touchscreen). and some games for the tacticle control models maybe. i just hopre zune doesnt leave the other models in the dust.

and btw i will be getting a 32gb in black (or silver if they dont have black)
GAY.
If this picture is true, why isn't there a black 32GB?
GAY.
why is it gay?, its just a colour. its not like its hot pink. besides, i imagine they will be coming out with a line of cases, or skins, or something to that effect that will be black. or another colour.
and just because its 16 gig in the photo, maybe it wont necesarrily (however you spell it) be that colour. maybe they are all black and silver.
im not worried, i would go with a 32 gig silver anyways.
