Cadmium910 - you can buy a Zune in the UK, check out Amazon/Google my friend! I have one and it's great... though I wish they'd bring the market place to the UK... mmm, where have I heard that before ;)

Awesome, XNA keeps getting better and better, any idea when further details will be available online? @Anon 2 Zune isn't dead, MS hasn't abandonded it like Toshiba did to HD-DVD, it's just not as big a market as iPod. I am a happy owner of a Zune, and to me is much better than the iPod 5th gen(was what I compared to when I purchased in 2006), and it gets better with every firmware update. When was the last time Apple gave iPod owners every new feature of the new generation device on the previous gen hardware? That's right, never!

Zune owners should be happy to hear this.  Both of them.
