The 3.0 firmware is now out to download for the Zune. This adds some neat features to the Zune. Games being played on your Zune is now available. With the update you get texas hold-em and Hexic. A clock has also been added to your Zune, which I'm very happy for this feature. Here is a list of the updates
New capacities
We've added 16GB and 120GB devices to the lineup, both with a glossy black front and a black metal back.
Buy from FM
Hear a song you like while listening to the radio on your Zune? Your device will identify it, and download it the next time you sync.
