Two new models to Zune family of MP3 players. The new Zune 120 GB player sells for $249.99, and the 16 GB model for $199.00.
Also MSFT has tweaked the device’s software to allow users to download songs from wireless hot spots, buy music heard on FM radio stations, as well as a music recommendation service, with a few new games thrown in.
Sounds like a step in the right direction and should help Zune move up from its 4% market share, although some grumps are unimpressed, see here: Zune Gets New Features That Won’t Help Sell Zunes.

High-fives to guys at Gizmodo for hunting down a pre-production model of Microsoft's mythical Zune HD. The video below is a bit on the blurry side, but there's also some sharp and exhaustive photos available from both Gizmodo and Engadget.
From the looks of things, Microsoft has really outdone itself on the hardware design. The Zune's OLED touch screen looks beautiful, and the industrial design of the casing is impressive. What a shame we have to wait until fall to see this on store shelves.
