This is the v3.0 feature that I'm looking forward to most. I know, it's silly. I guess I'm just a Hexic addict.

Yep, I guess it really makes us think about getting a Zune Pass.
Also, they did a good job with the UI for the shopping experience...building on the Zune's simplicity and sleek factor.

I get that these are great features. I would be happy if I could get EReader on my Zune.
Bluetooth would have been nice too. Then I could buy a car kit.

Yes, that's correct, if you have a Zune Pass you can wirelessly download anything included in the Zune Pass, or even stream it - so basically you can have access to a few million tracks anywhere you have WiFi. Pretty slick!
