Rumor has it the Zune 80 may not come only in one color!

While stores will sell only the black, there's evidence that the largest Zune's hue may not be isolated to one drab color. 

As we've seen it the past, Microsoft loved the Zune in many colors.  Why stop now?

ZuneScene is reporting to have the skinny on some sweet info!  Apparently zune.net will offer customizeable Zune 80s starting November 13th complete with different colors and text for engraving!  Very Sweet!  Now the only thing to consider is should you go for the black Zune in the store or go for a custom Zune but wait?  Arrgghh!

Here's the quote from the source from ZuneScene on whether MS is holding something back:


"...but there is something that Microsoft is holding onto releasing information
about until Tuesday. They have been keeping this info very secret,
as they want to get the "bang" effect when it is announced.

There is going to be an option from the Zune website called "ZUNE
ORIGINALS". People who order their zune from Zune.net, will have
the added bonus of being able to customize their zune. This will
include colour, up to five lines of custom text, and the choice of
25 preset logos that they can have etched into their zune prior to
delivery. There will be no added cost, but it is only available
through Zune.Net...

...I do believe that Microsoft will go Ape$h%t if this info gets out
before V2 release on Tuesday"

I might just have to wait!  This is definitely one way to make Zune even more personal or even a collector's item (who knows how long this offer will last!).

Thats such a difficult decision! How long of a wait I wonder? Probably 2-6 weeks delivery. [smiley=think] I might just have to get the black on in stores.

@guest user:

I agree, no one can hold out till v3, i'm waiting on other colour options, but if black is the only colour, i'm geting it.

That kind of sucks for people who pre-ordered their from other places already. They had no idea about this and now will either have to stick with the black one or get a refund and order from zune.net. I personally want mine in black so it doesn't make a difference to me. Cool little deal they're doing, but maybe they should have just been straight forward about it.

I will be patiently waiting for v3 or a Zune phone. Whichever comes first. Meanwhile, I will be loving the upgrades provided for v1!!!!!! Ipods suck hard drives!!!

Hopefully the colors will be more than what they have for the 4g & 8g, like Zune had for the limited edition.
