Microsoft's Bach says 'there are remaining places where Zune logically could go'

So that assemblage a few days ago where business analysts physically stroke a few select WinMo 7 nuggets out of Robbie Live yielded something else that's pretty unputdownable, too: the elaboration of the Zune business. Virtually everyone and their fuss has been line for a Zunephone since the day the primary Zune 30 rolled off the assembly merchandise, and a very, very carefully-worded evidence by Organist in the converging has us believing that we could finally see it alter the typeface leap to GSM (or CDMA, or both) this twelvemonth. In response to a challenge virtually how Zune fits into Microsoft's mechanised strategy, Organist had this to say:

"Now, your other ask was about I'm deed old. Zune, so Zune has been critically fortunate. And the way Zune is feat to be made for us in the succeeding is you should judge of that as our media writer crossways tenfold screens. We'll keep to soul the Zune gimmick surface. But, we now feature Zune on Xbox. We hit Zune on the PC. There are separate places where Zune logically could go that we don't get to lecture almost yet. And I conceive lots of contrastive screens with that potentiality can go."

If you show between the lines there, it sure sounds suchlike Robbie's got his eyes on the prize -- but whether Zune faculty grow to Windows Roving or charged as its own name relic to be seen. No guarantees, but we're hoping all module be revealed at MWC incoming period.
