OMG! I’m a especially excited for this firmware. Why? Because it addresses the Shuffle! I am a big shuffling freak. Shuffle is what I do best. But, I get extremely irritated when I have the same Album three times in a row. I THOUGH I SAID S-H-U-F-F-L-E, you lazy bastard. *ahem* sorry. Anyways, this new firmware is adressing this and making it, well… more shuffley. YAY! isn’t shuffle an awesome word?

After many months, Zune has finally reached the one million mark! Congratulations! One million sold and holding 10 % of the market shares is not a bad position to be in. On an interesting note, it beat iPod.
( The million unit figure bests Apple. It took the iPod 14 months to reach 600,000 shipments, but it was much earlier in the game than the Zune, when the market for digital music players wasn’t so hot. Apple has likely sold around 25 million iPods over the same time it has taken the Zune to reach its goal, according to financial analysts. from yahoo!)
