I gotta admit, as much as I love Apple and their products, this zune looks like it will beat the ipod touch. Way better processor specs, OLED high-res screen, hd radio, wireless syncing, this is definitely gonna be the first zune I plan to purchase. Competition = Better Products from both Apple & Microsoft.
