64GB Zune HD launching April 12th for $350, other models see $20 drop

Let’s put this out of the way as quickly as we can. To cut a press release and details after the break into a few sentences, the Zune HD will be available in a 64GB storage configuration on April 12th for $349.99 on the official Zune online store, with retailers coming in for the ride later. Ouch, pricey. In the meantime the 32GB and 16Gb will get a $20 price drop, $270 and $200 respectively. As for the Zune firmware v4.5 update, Microsoft had this to say: “in the coming days.” Okay, Microsoft, as long as it’s “in the coming days”. Press release after the jump.

Zune HD in 64GB version coming soon?

In a recent gaffe supposedly by a someone managing the Zune website, a dead link to a 64GB capacity Zune HD appeared. While there’s no direct info as to when it might show up, or if this is just a trick remains to be seen, otherwise having a Zune HD with 64GB of storage space to stuff junk into is quite an interesting fantasy, no?

Facebook app for Zune HD finally sees the light of day

In the first looks from many of us gadget bloggers, the above Facebook app for the Zune HD looks pretty solid, doesn’t it? Until the inevitable happens with the Zune HD, because as usual, there’s something that has to go wrong. According to CrunchGear, Devin’s Zune HD won’t update its software because there’s a Wi-Fi error. And yeah, just to get the app you have to update your software. Come on! Many other users are also reporting that as juicy as the app may look, it barely works. Get working on version 1.1, Microsoft! And that’s an order.

Windows Mobile 7 to Debut with The Zune Phone? Looks Like It.

That’s what Spanish blog MuyComputer is saying right now (in Spanish). According to their editorial director Javier Pérez Cortijo, “the Zune Phone presentation at Barcelona’s Mobile World Congress 2010 is 100% confirmed.” Meaning that if this is really true, the Zune Phone would launch at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in February. Also, Microsoft is said to have partnered with Nvidia, so it can use the Tegra chip to go head on with the iPhone. Other specs include a 480 x 272 screen, HDMI video out, and a weight of around 2.45 ounces (70 grams). One note that that I’d like to make clear to you guys is that the Zue Phone isn’t going to be a Zune HD with a phone connected to it — no — it’s going to be like the iPhone — Zune software running on Windows Mobile 7.
