if radio stations are multicasting their "HD" station, the quality is nearly indistinquishable from standard FM radio.

This is just not true! Most of the stations here in Tampa broadcast in HD now and you can definitely tell the difference when you tune in. For the first few seconds after tuning, you get the old analog signal and then the digital HD signal kicks in and you can definitely tell the difference. It's even more impressive on the AM HD stations.
As for the Zune HD, I think it looks pretty slick and I'm eager to find out more about it. Will it support third-party applications? I would think that, to compete with the iPhone, it'll have to. And will it have PDA applictions built in? If so, I wonder if it could be a Windows Mobile killer. (Or perhaps just a preview of Windows Mobile 7...)
