  I know its a Mokup, but I would think it would look like the new ZuneHD

  Only 480x272? C'mon they can do better than that. But then again, MS hasn't confirmed this yet.

  The reason why I dont like the zune hd is because it is too small and its limited to the amount of things you can do with it. Hopefully the zune phone will be bigger and the new windows mobile 7 OS will open a new world of things that can be done on it.

  It also sounds like BS that they'd decide to unveil it in Spain.
