    So I have been wanting to get a bigger iPod touch because I only have the 8 gig at the moment. I have run out of space for the most part and I wanted to get the 32 gig. However, I recently saw the Zune HD 32 gig (only $289.99 on Amazon) and it is much cheaper than the iPod. I was thinking of getting the Zune and using it for my music and videos and keep my iPod for the games and apps that I still have on it. Any input from you guys?

    The Zune HD is actually quiet nice I think. Plus it has this important feature! Zune HD I honestly think I'll purchase the 32GB one myself once released.

    Actually, I think the Zune HD has a better UI.

    I see the screen size is the same as a PSP. I happen to think that the PSP has a perfect screen size for watching stuff on a portable device, so you'd probably get about the same results with a Zune...just with HD added to it. Though I'm not sure about the price, personally i'd buy a PSP with a 16GB memory stick instead (if that PSP could be modded that is). A nice small bonus if you mod a PSP is you can have custom themes which actually makes the UI feel different.

    From the point of being an MP3 player? I would have to say the Zune HD. The UI looks smoother and easier to navigate. I am going to be getting this in a few weeks when it comes out.

    iPhone 3GS. Ignore what anyone else says ;) Your regret not having the best phone on the market and getting a useless MS mp3 player which will fail like most of their hardware does.

    The Zune HD is cheaper than the Ipod touch and will also have an app store so things look pretty promising for it. Once it has a nice collection of apps it could really rival the ipod touch if Microsoft market it right and sell it outside the USA.

    It’s nice but I wouldn’t say it’s the best phone ever, most expensive yes ;)

    Looks like Nimrod has been on an editing spree today. I like the "hidden text" on DarkScyth's post btw ;).
