it isn't a hard drive mp3 player which means it uses little chips instead of a hard drive.

It simply means it runs off flash memory, instead of a harddrive. It's more durable,(because it has no moving parts) but often is lower capacitys than HD

well if you drop a flash drive kind of mp3 player, it'll have a less chance of it dying mainly, but if its a hard drive player, then theres a bit more chance of it dying.. flash drive max so far is about 128 gig, but not out for mp3, for mp3 max is 32gb right now which is ipod touch and creative zen. no other companies using 32gb flash yet.

your welcome, so did you actually get a zune yet? or consider of getting a zune 4gb, 8gb, or 80gb? 80gb is a hard drive mp3 player though

I'm pretty positive theirs a 160 gig, I know thers something over 80 gig for apple HD players, and I think it's a 160 gig classic.

Yes, it is 80 gig.. but when the 80 came out, apple didn't have the 160, the zune 3 will surely compete with this storage copacity... hopefully beat it.
