It really is lovely. Can't wait to get one though I have to wait until Xmas. Only £449 as well. I like how you can stick a 3G stick in it as well.
I'm assuming that Stuff will review it?
or I will for them if they want
trotty:i just hope that it works with itunes... the fact that you can't has put me off the 7... can't wait to get one, available from the 4th november on play.com
Compatible with iTunes? Forget Apple's grey lump of DRM-riddled, monopolistic trash, what about Spotify?
Itunes is advert free and ..well free....Spotify isn't
I can't believe I just defended iTunes. I meant to say use Zune Player
True, and that is one thing iTunes has going for it, but at the end of the day, it is pretty bad, and it is quite monopolistic.
Never used Zune Player, is it any good?

Sigh. He was just saying he hopes it's compatible with iTunes, not asking your thoughts of iTunes.
Oh and iTunes is DRM free now ( films aside ). Where have you been lately?

When I mentioned DRM I was referring to movies :) Sorry, should've made myself a little more... clear?
Drunken Max:Seriously though, the Zune Player is a free download. Try it out, the Quickplay functions are great and its a good library manager, unless of course you have DRM protected music.
To be honest I don't have a huge deal of tracks that are actually saved to my hard disk. I generally stream via Spotify. The small amount of local tracks I do have saved to the system aren't protected by DRM, so I may as well give Zune Player a whirl sometime :)
I do like the look of it, but i want to stick with OSX, so if i bought one and put pystar's new software on it, i guess i might buy one, but there is no guarantee that the touchscreen would work within OSX even with a bit of fiddling.
