 The Wall Street Journal has tallied the votes and have read their vedirct:

 ....in a highly improbable move, Zune surged from less than 1% through most of the polling to 28% at the end...

 

zunevotes

 

Well, the iPhone/iPod did win with 465,121 votes, with Zune in second. 

So, will this poll change people's lives?  Does it have any real significance?  Well, it just may!  How many people look to Wall Street for financial information?  Now the majority of people don't give a hoot, and that's OK....but what was really shown was how the Zune Community could respond to whining iFans....

And thanks for everyone who voted!  It was pretty intense.  At one point, the iPhone/iPod was holding steady while Zune almost reached 30% of the total votes (with a little help of course).  That's when the iFans began retaliating; using their own forms of 'voting' to hold the lead.  At one point they were getting 1,000 votes per second!   

Special thanks goes out to Greg who 'helped' greatly!  

If anything else, it was pretty entertaining watching the drama unfold!  Yeah, and I admit - pretty dumb, but entertaining no less!

That little 'boost' by Greg musta helped a lot. Hey, 2nd place ain't so bad considering the Zune hasn't been out for but so long. Maybe this time next year the Zune will be at the top with the Ipod some where below (preferably at the bottom. I hate the Ipod, that's why I got a Zune )and we won't have to use the 'booster' and people will really vote for the Zune.

Yeah they just the Ifanbois just kicked in their voting program sooner. The first initial 64000 was shot out by that program then later when the Zune pulled up closer they kicked it in again. Been reading on their Mac Daily News site about this
