Microsoft: Zune update 'is' coming soon

Last month, Microsoft announced that Zune owners will be able to download a software update to fix several bugs with the device in mid-March, but the patch release has been delayed. For some Zune users, this update is vital, as it fixes a bug that makes music tracks skip during playback. These are songs downloaded from Microsoft's Zune marketplace.

Marketing director Jason Reindorp didn't give any new time-frame but assured that the patch is "very close to being ready." "The original date was an estimate based on how long we thought it would take to finish development work and put the update through normal testing processes," Reindorp said. "As with any project like this, things can sometimes take a little less time or a little more time."



The last Zune update was issued in December, adding support for the Windows Vista operating system.

  When will people learn. Stop purchasing MS crap. Everything they make, even something so...simple is full of bugs. There're other companies out there, which provide similar and/or superior products.
