The iPod Nano is easily one of the hottest players on the market, and if Microsoft's strategy is to succeed, they really need to target that demographic. As for a 'truly WiFi-enabled device', well, I agree wholeheartedly with Engadget when they said <em>"upgrade the firmware and add the features, don't try to sell us a v2 device that does what the V1 device can and should." </em>The Digital Music News article can be found <a target="_blank" href="http://www.digitalmusicnews.com/stories/012207zune">here.</a><em><br /></em>
