I honestly don't know. Every time I ask, the Zune team is extremely tight-lipped about it. I find it baffling, and frustrating.

As for selling the hardware without the Marketplace, I don't know if we live in that word any more - I think people expect to have a tightly integrated hardware+software experience.
