Really? They have an AWFUL way of demonstrating the beginnings of that strategy. I really hope the rest of their plan doesn't include announcing products right after a major Apple announcement without announcing specs or pricing and not making it available immediately thus taking full advantage of any free press they may be getting. These guys bellyflopped. They shot their load off way to early and they're ultimately going to pay for it in the form of very slow if miniscule sales.

And that means what? 5 years between unstable and buggy upgrades that are overwhelmingly overpromised and underdelivered? Don't get me wrong, I'm rooting for the Zune. Competition is a good thing. Assuming Apple doesn't see this product as a complete joke and an insult to the marketplace, tney could use a bit of a spark lit under their ass.
