Seriously I would have gotten the Zune HD if it had launched in Canada but now even if it did I’m going to get the new IPhone, stupid Microsoft.

I read recently that Apple is now bigger than Microsoft. I must admit, this doesn’t surprise me..Apple management is probably one of the most creative business teams on the planet. Microsoft, on the other hand, is still just a bunch of the “old boys club” who believe that as long as they protect their OS and Office they can make a lot of buckaroos.

They are right..but, if I may paraphrase: “Don’t put all your eggs in TWO baskets!”

I own a Zune 120 with two docks. The Zune HD probably has the best screen of any handheld viewer–Microsoft Canada should be beating down the Executive Doors, but it’s just too comfortable to sit nursing their two eggs.

For those that want one, neither newegg.ca nor tigerdirect.ca carry the HD, but there are several ebay.ca sellers (with excellent reputations) who sell them to Canadians for a fair price.

I can’t believe this! I was tired of iPod problems and such, as well as a general new life stance to not give money to Apple. Researched, found the Zune HD, fell in love, went to buy..NOT IN CANADA! Unbelievable I thought, I want to give Microsoft my money but they won’t take it! That’s certainly a rare occurrence!

I hope Microsoft gets their act together and releases the Zune HD here somehow, someway, or my wallet may unfortunately be going back to the evil Mr. Jobs. Seriously, I don’t even care that HD radio won’t work in Canada!

Well,Bend Over Canadians who want ‘Zune’ not ‘I POD’.
Dear Microsoft what is going on, In the economic climate of today does it not make sense to get sales in Canada ? One minute we had the product now we do not!
Why all the secrecy ?
Tell us what is happening. Please.

Celt.
