It’s been a while since i last talked about Microsoft’s Zune, wanted to wait until there’s enough fresh meat to share, rather than just spreading tidbits here and there:

-Zune’s Battery Life: 13 Hours of audio playback, 4 for video. Quite simillar to the 30GB iPod, not impressive at all.

Regardless of either the Zune or the iPod, the consumer will be the winner of this new front in the battle for our entertainment lifestyle.

-And finally: Zune accessories already for sale at Overstock.com

The batteries are replaceable and the bulb has a 100,000 hour life, so unless you’re seriously challenged at lock finding, it should last you forever.
