The Zune 8GB will allow sharing with nearby Zunes within 30' or connect to your wireless network for wireless syncing with your PC. Its 1.8" display is covered in scratch-resistant glass with 320 x 240 resolution which can be viewed in horizontal or vertical orientation.
The Zune 8GB can import unprotected WMV, MPG4 and H.264 files into your video library or listen to FM radio with RDS. The Zune pad makes browsing your device simple and easy.
