Lets hope there is next firmware.
I don't listen to much music, I wanted the Zune for Podcasts and Video. BUT... it needs a better way to organize podcasts by source (Album?). In any case an easier way to put all the podcasts from a single source into a specific area. It treats a podcast like music, if you exit the file, it dosen't store where you stopped so you can go back to the same place next time and continue listening. Video files do, but not podcasts.
#1 Better Organization of material, and drag and drop between Albums or storage areas.
#2 Better Organization of Video Files, (VideoCasts), or even if you could put all the videos from a single source in their own areas, like albums in the music section. If you load up 30 megs of material, it sure gets hard sorting it all out unless some better method is provided in the next firmware.
#3 Let the user create file areas, as needed, Playlists are not working.

Love the hardware, but MicroSoft dropped the ball when it came to the software and firmware. Would like to see some light at the end of the tunnel that something will or is being done to improve organization of files.
