Zune price-drop in effect TODAY…

Wednesday, Sep. 5 2007 | Author: Drew

I’m going to try to keep this as un-Apple biased as possible.

Yesterday, the official Zune blog announced that the price of Microsoft’s portable media device would be dropping to $199, effective Wednesday, September 5.

Speculation on the motivation for this price drop ranges everywhere from the likelihood of a new Zune product (which we reported on here) and the even greater likelihood of a new iPod today. Regardless, if you’ve been holding out hope to pick up one of these for some reason (sorry, had to sneak it in there), now’s the time.

So I heard there’s new 80Gb and 160Gb iPods out, as well as a great new iPod Touch with the iPhone interface and WiFi!

Microsoft are really losing their edge lately. Zune, Vista, OOXML, and the 33% failure rate of original 360s…

I’m not going to start up with the usual “the end is nigh, Microsoft is closing down, Bill Gates is going to jail for antitrust” argument, but they certainly aren’t enjoying the blanket market dominance they have for the last 20 years.

How times change.
