    Remarkable post & Outstanding weblog! I would like to begin a blog too but I’ve no clue where to start. I have the relevant skills to do it (not that hard on the practical part) but I honestly feel like I’m just too lazy to post frequently… That’s the matter, if you start you need to go all of the way…

    The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
