Congratulations on spelling f*ck wrong. But what I'm worried about is it smudging and scratching like hell.

Tearing yourself apart... really?! lol. Yeah, I'm hoping they will make some cooler changes given the date being pushed back.

It's my birthday in September too!

I want it to be before the 19th because I leave for college that day.

Honestly though, I would have rather had it on the 8th. 7 days to stock an item? Does it really take that long?

its not going to. I highly doubt its like the crappy crappy backs on the ipods. Its more than likely like what is on the Zune 4's and 8's (?). If it is, then you won't have any smudging or anything.

Dude, it's not shiny, it's brushed aluminum (aluminum imitation plastic?). There's no way color will make scratches any more noticable. Plus if the front part is matte texture plastic (which it looks like it is), finger oils will show up way more on black than silver.

Yep. I know that now. If it was the suckass stuff on the back of the iPod... I would cry. This plastic/brushed aluminum stuff is SEXY.

Yea it seems like Sept 15th is a lot more logical of a real release date, If you look at Microsoft's track record they tend to release most of there stuff on Tuesdays, donno why but MS loves Tuesdays.

Also don't know if you all caught it but Cnet had an interview with Brian Seitz of Zune, a few things were noted such as, Games and Apps will be on the zune, ZuneHD will be part of ZuneOriginals so you can get an inscribed one, and older Zunes are getting a firmware update.

Most DVDs come out on Tuesdays. Its kind of a Universal thing for releasing things in stores. Plus, September 8 is a Tuesday as well

Yep. We saw this live. Charge brought it to our attention, and there are articles about it here already.

the front wont be plastic. why would it?

and dude, if you happen to own a zune 4 or 8 or 80 or 120, just TRY to make scratches. seriously. you cant. plus the screen is glass, theres no way in hell you will scratch that unless you have a diamond ring. and what would you have it rub against to scratch it?

Judging by pictures and videos, the silver part of the front of the Zune HD will be the same material as the back
