Default Volvoshine's 1 A Day Mini Zune Interview

Ryan RC Rea (volvoshine) on Twitter

"Tune in tomorrow for the 1st part of a mini interview with my Zune source.. One question per day"

Looks like we will get lil details each day!
yay!


First Question 6/30/09:
"RR With Tegra in the Zune HD... what kind of battery. life are we looking at? TK it should be roughly 5X more then the current iPod touch"

Second Question 7/1/09
"RR The question everyone asking.. Will the Zune HD offer games? TK Yes, the Zune HD will be a new chapter in mobile gaming for Microsoft"

Third Question 7/3/09
"RR: What is the Zune HD's web browser like? TK: The browser is fully featured and very usable, I've used the ZuneHD and I loved it!"

UPDATE JULY 3rd
"I'm going to go back to giving Zune info whenever i can.. this everyday thing is not working out as planned"

:/
it was good while it lasted.

probably all these people complaining about the released info:|

I am just confused on why they are keeping the details a secret.

He probably knows it all, and is just releasing little bits each day.

But he isn't given us any solid details. "Should be roughly 5x more than"? Dude sounds like a politician.

You cant put a realistic time as they probably haven't run the device for that long yet just playing music.

Well it's probably down to things like unfinished firmware and power managaments settings etc which have yet to be finalized, but the general end result will be something around 5x longer.

I don't believe anything he says, he's already been wrong several times.

Why can't MS just tell us? I'm kinda sick of mind games. They announced this thing like a month ago and have been stringing us along with little details. Just tell us the specs, and if you don't have them, don't announce the device until you do.

Its waaaaay to early.

If they release the specs right now, It gives Apple (or other people) time to think of, and create something that will beat the ZuneHD

I dont want to pick an argument but come on. Any rumors or news is better than nothing. At least the original leak at Engadget and this...


Neowin Exclusive: Lets talk some Zune HD specs

Quote:
We've teamed up with Ryan Rea (aka volvoshine) from LiveSide.net and are going to let the world know what we do and do not know about the Zune HD. We've got the green light to go ahead and share the specs that our sources within Microsoft have confirmed to us.

As much as he has been wrong, his source isn't a member of the Zune or Xbox teams. 5x compared to the iPod touch sounds about right based on the 23 days in a netbook claim from nVidia. There are other previous stories that say that the ZuneHD would be a "gaming device". He's been right on many major things, and wrong on minor details like screen size. He knew that Tegra was going to power this thing as well as the hd outupt, hd radio, all of this before anyone else, no one can guess that correctly.
