Any idea where can I get Zune 2 in Auckland? Or any online sites that ships to NZ.
Appreciated.

They have just been announced so I guess you'd have to wait a little to have those here - even though not from an official distributor because the Zune is only available in the U.S.

Thanks. I guessed the question is will it ever come here ... I havent any classic ones here so far. Amazon has some stocks and they ship worldwide .... might bite.

Read the page again. Amazon never sends electronics overseas...

Thought I saw it did. Anyways, know any NZ online sites that sells 'em?

Else I can pay my mate in US to ship it here.

Changed my mind and bought a Samsung 4GB T10 from DSE instead. It has everything I need and more.

I am really considering buying the Zune.

Any thoughts on how good they are????

By the way, the Zune usually sells for $300+ on TradeMe. There's usually at least 2 auctions of Zunes at any time, mainly the basic colours, nothing special.

I had a look but those are refurbished Zune 30. You'd want Zune 80 as it can play more video format/codec than Zune 30. Though Zune 30 can be upgraded to Zune2 firmware, so it's still good if you have moderate demand.

I just wish Microsoft will seriously learn about how to hold a global launch... Apple did it with ipod with one world wide launch... and yet Microsoft is incapable of doing it... *sigh* sad... still I want a Zune80.

Personally, I use http://www.anythingbutipod.com/ as my MP3 resource. It's American-oriented, but all the reviews, disassemblys, and product previews are still useful.
