Tomorrow, consumers ready for a richer, more connected and more personal entertainment experience will have the first opportunity to get their hands on sleek new Zune players, re-designed Zune software and new online services including the Zune Marketplace and the Zune Social, an online music community. For the first time, consumers will also have the option to customize their Zune player with laser-engraved designs and personal text through a new Web store called Zune Originals. Customers will be able to purchase a Zune player directly from Microsoft at www.ZuneOriginals.net and choose from a collection of laser-engraved artwork designed exclusively for Zune by eighteen internationally-recognized artists.

Consumers no longer need to settle for the same portable media player as everybody else. The updated design of the new Zune players is complimented by smart new software and a dramatic new look and feel for Zune Marketplace. Every Zune player includes wireless sync and wireless sharing, a built-in FM tuner, and a bright color screen to display music, pictures, videos, and podcasts. Existing Zune owners will receive all new software features via an free and easy upgrade at launch. The new Zune software takes digital music to a new level of simplicity, while connecting consumers to a richer, more interactive entertainment experience through Zune Marketplace and the new Zune Social online music community.

this is a great idea. cut out the middle man, increase profits. how do you do this? give consumers a few more custom options that are exclusive.

although the mount of sales that are done tihs way will me minimal, it gives MS bragging rights, which are priceless.

Ugh...you never seem to be able to read my posts correctly

..will more than just the 4 colors be available? if not then this is just a stupid gimmick. i'm not suggesting "custom" colors, just a wider array than would be available in retail

I don't think that there is going to be any other colors besides those that you would find in the store. I think the real focus of this option is the etched designs (which are amazing) and text on the back.

I'm interested to know if there will be other color choices for the Zune 80 other than black.
