Full FeedMicrosoft prepping the third generation Zune, mobile Zune store
With little details emerging we have learned that Microsoft is expecting to have the next generation Zune, (one can only assume it will be called the Zune 3) to be hitting the stores sometime during 2009. According to reports from Les Echos, which is a French newspaper we will be seeing that new Zune along with a mobile Zune portal “sometime in 2009.”
The mobile store portal would allow for users to purchase music and games from computers, Windows Mobile devices and even the Zune. The access for Windows Mobile devices is rumored to be with the next, next version, Windows Mobile 7, which considering we are all still waiting for Windows Mobile 6.1 may be a while.
Little details are know about the Zune 3, but some speculation is that it may include a web-browser. Its almost sounding a little more like the iPod Touch. The Zune, while we may poke fun from time to time seems to be shaping up to a very decent player in the PMP market.

Palm Pre Information & Updates
Palm just introduced their next-gen smartphone, the Palm Pre, and next-gen operating system, Palm webOS. Gadgetell's got the latest Pre and webOS information and news for you right here.
that would be really cool if the the 3G zunes had a web browser. That would make them more expensive though. I hope they come out with a more basic mp3 version as well.
zune is really getting somewhere with this whole wireless thing though.
Has anyone heard about zune games? and wireless multi player? If so could you fill me in? thanks.

As of yet, you have to restart the Zune every time you play one of these games or apps but once it becomes part of a firmware update it shouldn’t require that. The multiplayer option should be great assuming you find others with a Zune and the same game but hey, 8 player games on a pmp, that’s awesome!
