So, I update my program/firmware on the ZUNE and in looking through the menus under wireless I see SYNC. I don't remember if it was there before the firmware upgrade but the crazy thing can now sync with the host PC via my 802.11G home wireless network. I remember that you could always wirelessly send songs from one ZUNE to another but I think this feature kind of snuck in on me. Do the IPOD's have a wireless Sync option? Do they have FM radio on them yet? My battery finally failed after one year and was only $17.50 on ebay for the replacement. Got shipped the wrong one but found that the ZUNE and Video IPOD use the same exact battery......go figure.

Two of my daughters have Zune's and they like them more than their old Ipods.

The latest firmware did indeed bring in the wireless sync option according to a few web blogs on the subject. The new software/firmware came out with the introduction of the new 80gb ZUNE.

I love my Sandisk 4g MP3 player. The interface is better than an Ipod I think, and you dont have to use iTunes to sync and transfer files. It's got the same quality build and finish as the iPod as well. I have the 4gig modem with the larger screen.

oh yeah, and it's got a voice recorder, FM radio, AND allows you to record from the FM radio and save it as am MP3 file. Cool!

I am so out of step with mp3 players. I had never heard of a Zune. Had to Google it. Now you have Sandisk. Talk about being being un-hip.
No one in our house owns an iPod or any mp3 listening device. But we have a cool dual cassette recorder with high speed FF/REW.

Does that sit right next to your Beta-Max tape rewinder that looks like a corvette?

Is that beta than Blu-ray? I just can't keep up with all the latest technology anymore.

A lot of people don't understand new technology, I once though about making a "DVD rewinder", and sell it at flea markets, advertising it, as something to use beforre taking your rented dvde back to the store, to save the rewind charge.
Heck maybe I cound get "Ronco" to sell it on late night tv.

THAT is a very funny idea, Nwokie.

Or, how about getting Don Lapre to hawk how his system where all of his people do all the work of placing classified ads in newspapers and setting up 900 numbers as ordering hotlines can turn the product into your own "perfect" home business! 
In other outrageous products, I once saw a TV ad that was for an adhesive plastic lining to place on both sides of your CDs!
The worst thing about this one is that I am not making this up!
