Default Still not sure about buying a Zune?


Well, I believe this guy, Chris Lechness, does a great job on his gadget reviews and that he could help those of you still on the fence about getting a Zune (Specifically the Zune 80 in this video).
+ YouTube Video

This is Chris again with the Zune, but this time with the Zune 4/8.
+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


And this was the video that actually convinced me to buy my original Zune way back in January.

And a follow-up

Chris does a great job showing every part of the Zune, so I thought it would help some of you future Zuners.

What do you guys think?

You might be better waiting until January since right now all the retailers are trying to get as much for them as they can. January tends to see a lot of big sales since nobody's buying anything.

What I liked most about the video was the size comparisons. Gives you a great idea how big the zune actually is. It also show you how incredible the zune screen is.

Yeah I remember watching the 2 original ones, they were pretty in depth and made me want my Zune sooner than when it was coming.

Huh? It's Christmas time. That's when everbody buys everything. In case you've never taken a marketing class or just have no concept of sales in general, December is when people buy. Not claiming to be a marketing or sales genius, but really? You believe what you wrote? huh... weird. BTW, I bought 2 new Z's this month for gifts. But I guess since no one is buying, I'm no one. lol

No, what he meant was that after the Christmas season there is no reason for people to buy massive amount of gifts, so to get people to buy the retailers they use large sales to get people in the door.
