^^But Zune is not available in India! You can get it on ebay though for around 7-8k!

@shyamno:whats wrong with the new Ipod Nano 4 GB ? Just around 6-6.5k,a very good screen and excellent sound quality!

^^Ofcourse,I meant its not officially launched in India :D

btw,they are selling V1 and not V2! The pic of a new V2 is very misleading and wrong on their part!

One more thing,I just read the review of Zune on your blog..You have not mentioned about its wifi capabilities..Did you try the wireless sync feature on the new firmware ? :p
