My iPod has always been stolen well before longevity becomes an issue... 3 and counting.

My Zune is still not working.

Doesn't the battery have to rundown before you recharge it again to reset the clock?

Freescale caused bug in Toshiba players (Zune 30 is a Toshiba player):

The first-generation Zune was created while Microsoft was in close cooperation with Toshiba, which took the design of the Gigabeat S and redeveloped it under the name Toshiba 1089 as registered with the FCC starting in the year 2006

That mysterious and completely enraging "Zune bug" that cropped up on the final day of 2008 may not have been restricted to Microsoft PMPs. A much smaller cadre of Toshiba Gigabeat users reportedly experienced similar issues, and some even noted that the whole "discharge and re-date" rigmarole fixed their unit right up as well. Upon further investigation, it seems that the issue may actually reside in the Freescale MC13783 processor, which -- coincidentally enough -- is used in the Zune 30 and a few of Toshiba's alternatives.

They would actually have to sell Zune's in order for this to be a massive fail. Microsoft deserves more credit. This is just a little fail.

I am hovering on the edge of ordering a 120 GB Zune.

 

[CrabJoe StretchPants]

Do it. My brother got one and is loving it. I got his old 30 GB one he had for two years that works fine, so I can't justify getting a 120 GB one now, but if I was in the market, that's what I'd be getting no doubt.

My 30g still won't work. :-(
