Wondering...

Well if I were to switch out the controls for the zune and replace em with lets say....the gigabeats...

Would i have to change the software? or would it be just hardware?
Yes...i am a noob at this crap =\

If I understand correctly, You want to know if its possible to take the psychical controls(Buttons) from the gigabeat and use them on the zune.. Anything is possible. But something like that would require massive hardware modifications as well as software modifications.
