Zune - 14th November

It's all over the place now, but the Zune is due to be released on 14th November in the US for $249.99. You will be able to subscribe to Zune Pass, which will cost $14.99 per month and give you access to the Zune library (millions of songs they say) - but I assume that you would need to remain a subscriber... Individual tracks will cost 79 Microsoft points (99 cents).
