Default Considering a Zune - can I run .NET on it?

Hi all-

Looking at picking up a Zune ... kind of curious as to whether or not I can run .NET/Compact Framework/Micro Framework on it by any chance? I've dug around the hacks section, don't seem to see anything about running your own assemblies on the Zune ...

Thanks for any info!

EDIT: I see you can use XNA ... but what about fullblown framework/compact/micro stuff?

Right now, Microsoft lets us use XNA on the Zune, which uses a limited form of the .NET Compact Framework. There are currently no public hacks that allow the full .NET Compact Framework to be used on the Zune, but that could change in the future.
