Microsoft and the Zune

With all the iPhone talk, maybe it's time to look up to suburban Seattle and see what's up with Microsoft. Their latest entry into the mp3 player field is the Zune. Sadly, the Zune has no real podcasting component because the software that works with it doesn't have a viable podcatcher incorporated within it. This from the alleged #2 player on the market? Luckily we've learned from Paul Colligan's blog something's on the way from Microsoft... apparently they are "working on it." Good news for podcasters... anything that makes it easier to get podcasts on any device (iPhone over the air... Zune, um, like at all) is a step in the right direction.
