Yellow (Citron) Zune

Monday, November 26th, 2007

The yellow coloured Zune CitronRecently a hidden color for the Zune was supposedly uncovered. This bright yellow Zune, entitled the Citron Zune has since been confirmed as an internal once off (similar to the orange player released last year) with only Microsoft employees being able to get their mitts on one.

Interestingly, another source has contradicted this statement by suggesting that there might be hope for us yet (at least for those in America, not so much for us Aussies!). Apparently the yellow unit may become available early 2008 in partnership with a certain, unnamed sponsor.

Keep your ears to the ground for more information.

First Anniversary, Still no Australian release date

Sunday, November 25th, 2007

One year on from the US release of the Microsoft Zune and there is still no confirmed release date for the audio player in Australia. Microsoft are trying hard to prevent importing of the device but unless they release some details soon this option seems like the best one, at least for the time being.

So many dates have now been touted as a potential release date that there is no way to even tell when we might expect the player. Originally it was expected early 2007, now 2008 seems more feasable. Even 2010 has been quoted in some reports. We can only hope we get it here before then!
