Zune

In reply to Mart's comment on previous post, the print media laughed harder at Microsoft's comments, noting their brilliant execution and piercing market analysis with the Zune.

Here is a funny review of the Zune by Leo Laporte. Microsoft's newest entry into the market of expensive paperweights...

Gros poisson. Tout le monde sait que le ZUNE est un flop total....et tout le monde sait que comparer un téléphone de 650$ (sans le service) avec un de 300$ est complètement....."fair". Yhea, right.

FYI...the RAZR was $500 US at its launch 2 years ago, not $300. It was $300 US when you signed up for a 3 year plan. Tout le monde sait ça. I'm playing "fair", are you? Yhea, right.

BTW...who mentioned price and what does it have to do with anything? iPod's are the most expensive, no? Creative players are the best, but...

"iPods dominated holiday sales in the MP3 category, accounting for 57.3 percent of all players sold at a panel of electronics stores studied by research firm NPD Group. SanDisk came in second with 19.2 percent, Creative Technology placed third, and Microsoft's new Zune player was the fourth-place finisher with 2.8 percent of the sales."

Now, this being said, let us reexamine my initial affirmation...

"if you thought the RAZR was a success, you haven't seen nothin' yet."

What's wrong with this opinion?

P.S. Your smartmoney link doesn't work.

Your are wrong. 3 mois avant le lancement officiel du RAZR, ROGERS m'a envoyé une offre spécial pour client fidèles. L'offre était 300$ avec signature d'un an. De toute façons Fafane, je ne faisais que te niaser. C'est la seule méthode que j'ai trouvé pour te faire pogner les nerfs, nous ne te voyons plus au bureau.... Les 2 seules choses de vrais dans mes posts sont les suivantes:

-ZUNE = CRAP
-iPhone = Very expensive

Le reste, ce n'était que pour te faire réagir. Même chose pour Balmer, c'est un ostie de cave. Sont entrevue au sujet du iPhone et de la compétition prouve qu'il ne vole pas haut du tout.


Sans rancune..... Ciao!

I know you post comments to get me to react...

And if I didn't react, well, you might be disappointed...so what the hell! I don't want to disappoint!

BTW...I love you too!

P.S. Keep on fishin'
