lukeehere · 08-09-2007, 09:51 AM

-sleep timer
-language support i.e. chinese characters come up instead of stupid little rectangles

KCMike · 08-09-2007, 03:39 PM

I'd like to see the following added:

> Clock
> Sleep Feature, like a TV (so I can listen while going to bed and it'll turn off in a certain amount of time).

.:I think the clock is REALLY NEEDED I get pissed I gotta ask my iPOD friends for the time then they make fun of me for the zune but I shut em up in the end

Just get a cellphone and look at that for the time.

the coolest thing to be added would be solitare\games

KCMike · 08-09-2007, 08:01 PM

I do have a phone and use it for the time. I'd added in the clock mainly for the "Sleep" mode.

lpxxfaintxx · 08-09-2007, 11:32 PM

I really need a clock.

Surkit · 08-11-2007, 03:18 PM

I for one, noticed a expedential rise in the need for a clock. I do not have a cell phone, and i hate wearing stuff on my arms, but all in all not that important. Games would be nice. But most importantly, anything the Ipod doesn't have.

metheweirdo · 08-11-2007, 07:39 PM

this is easy
THINGS TO ADD TO ZUNE:
Wi-Fi- To MarketPlace from any wi-fi hotspot
CLOCK!!
Way More support for other video formats
More Audio Formats would help also
the zune should have the ability to play any video file without converting
GAMES!!!!
Be able to browse music in widescreen mode
Radio would look cool if the radio stations and info were viewed in widescreen
P.S. If the zune had the ability to browse by album cover (like cover flow)it would be cool and it would help ALOT.

David · 08-12-2007, 03:58 PM

I want to be able to still play songs while the zune is connected to the computer with the software running...

revolver183 · 08-12-2007, 07:03 PM

yeah like play off the zune while connected with out having to move your music on to the computer.

Mrtacobell · 08-12-2007, 08:56 PM

What would be cool is when you're watching a movie, and you want to know how long its been or when its going to end, you can just hit the center button rather than just hit the play/pause button. That will make it easier since it won't stop the movie that you're watching. Also, a clock would be nice.

Spyda Kat · 08-13-2007, 07:22 AM

i dont understand why they cant add a damn clock because when the zune syncs it says the date and time a song was last played so a clock feature is already in the zune, dont know why they cant make it visible. But as of this post i'm currently downloading a new firmware update, i wonder what it does

edit: oh its a software update nevermind

**wetworker** · 08-13-2007, 01:09 PM

OK HERE IS MY BEEF WHEN WATCHING MOVIES

I love anime and one of the gripes I have about them are, they come in episodes so when one episode is finished I’m forced to turn the zune back around then choose the next episode, sure that feature is nice, but I would love to just click on the center button and a little gallery of images pop up or fade up so I can navigate to the next or previous clip, this could also be used for images, that crappy white fade that comes out from the left could be use for something else. Here are 2 comps of what I’m talking about.
If there are any MS peeps on here look into it or pass it on. I would be glad to do more mock ups for ya.
…the wet-1

shadster · 08-13-2007, 09:12 PM

1) clock
2)delete files directly from zune
3) use zune as a hardrive on any pc
4)listen to songs on my shared network

edit: oh yeah some games and so quick search options would be nice

all you have to do is close zune software while connected and then lock the zune and the backlight will turn off after awhile

Spyda Kat · 08-14-2007, 07:28 AM

i think we need to get a petition of some sort and send it to microsoft, it might work, but only the realistic ideas such as clock and sleep mode because i really dont see web browsing coming to the current zune any time soon, Maybe zune 2.0

Kwesi · 08-14-2007, 12:21 PM

Who needs games on your zune <_< I use it for videos and music if I wanna play games I would play my DS.

boxhunter91 · 08-14-2007, 12:40 PM

Wouldn't you want a player that allows you to listen music, watch videos and play games? I sure would.
