No Unicode Support for Older Devices with 3.2 Firmware.

[Dilpickle1]

I decided to join the Q&A chat with @DaveMacMS and everyone, and the question was asked.

[4:04] mackycorp: so does 3.2 support unicode?

and the answer, from Dave, sadly.

[4:05] davemacms: 3.2 for legacy devices does not include Unicode support, no

So, another disappointment for older device owners. Looks like i'm saving up for a ZuneHD now!

What do ya'll think?

[Zombii Matt]

What the hell is unicode support and why do you all care so much?

[Sebbeh♥]

Being able to see other characters, or fonts.
Like Japanese text, Chinese text, Hebrew, etc.

Basically being able to show signs/letters other than the English Alphabet.

Your all so pissed off over that... Its something probably less than 5% of all Zune owners would actually use, and its an American device. Why would you all expect it so much. Microsoft isn't going to throw away money for nothing...

How would they be throwing away money? Unicode support does not cost much...
