zune 80gig 4.0 firmware (3.20)?
Am i missing something? I see no changes in the software whatsoever except for a few minor bug fixes. I will be getting a zune hd as soon as money allows though so it doesent matter. Just wondering if im blind.

I was really hoping for quickplay (pins) and those letter shortcuts in the lists
Oh well, when I get my HD, it'll be moot. Just cant wait for the actually marketplace to go back up. Wanna poke around and see what's in apps.

I don't think older Zunes got anything. I see no changes on my Zune30 at all. I guess its all about the HD now. Still waiting for it to arrive to play with.

I believe we are talking about the firmware version on the Zune itself, New Start. Not the desktop Zune software.

Ive seen a few people say theres an install games section with the new firmware. Is this true? And what does it do? Is it for XNA or does it seem they will be making games/apps for legacy zunes as well?

I'm pretty disappointed as well, after the "we won't leave the older players behind."
Where's chess for the oldies?
Well supposedly there will be at least one more chance to win an HD, so maybe.

What changed in 3.20?
Okay, so just updated to 3.20.
Absolutely nothing different...
Which is no real surprise because Microsoft has been working on the HD.
But there was an update something must have changed right?
Anyone have any info on this?

Didn't it always do that?
Can you view the plays on the device itself?
