Just FYI:

"Supported 720p HD video files play on the player, downscaled to fit the screen at 480 x 272 – not HD resolution."

Well no it isn't "stolen", but come on, a glass touch screen with a metallic backing IS Apple's distinct design. You can't blame them though, it's just a marketing technique to mimic whatever the leader of the industry is doing. I'm not singling out Zune.

I'm pretty sure it means you can put HD movies on it and when you plug it into the xbox/tv it wil display at the higher resoulution... It looks pretty decent, the screens a bit smaller than the ipods though i think.

Yeah it's pretty disgusting how much Microsoft is on the Ipod's jock.

The Zune looks hot though, for what it's worth. And if they can fit the big hard drive while still keeping it slim it be a good combination.

I have a better idea. Let's just let Apple dominate the market.

Makes sense. No?

lol. srsly. Stop and think about that. What exactly is so "distinct" about a touch screen with a metallic backing? As a matter of fact, LG made one over a year before the iTouch was even announced. See "Prada". Jeez man, Apple is all over LG's stuff, it's so unfair.

And yea the 720p is output size. I'm pretty sure it's physically impossible to place 720 pixels along the height of ANY portable media player's screen. Even the glorious iPhone only displays 320. But what it means is you can plug it into any TV/monitor and it displays 720p on that.

Apple is less unique than you think. The new Macbook Pro's design isn't new either.

I know what it means. Its just a bit misleading to average people thinking the movies they watch on the airplane will be in HD.
