A couple of things:
This explains why the Zune Insider was saying that the background is black.
The nVidia collaboration with the iPod 5G produced the smoothest video playback for any portable device that I've had that was also an MP3 player. When Apple brought all that in-house, quality definitely suffered for TV playback. Too many videos stutter now when the 5G never really did
The argument about how many cores is like how people used to say the Atari Jaguar wasn't 64-bit years ago. Who really cares unless it doesn't do what you want it to do with playback?
You can't see an iPod Classic in the sunlight either. Most portable devices are like that in sunlight. That's why I bought my MyVu glasses which also has issues in sunlight unless you cover the outside display in black tape.
At least Zune knows how to use the Wolfson chipset. Apple couldn't make that work in the 5G to sound nearly as good.
