Microsoft will launch its portable media player Zune on November 14, 2006, in the USA, and as usual we in Europe will have to wait extra long for new and exciting technology. Alas, it seems to be an extra long wait for Zune. A launch during the first quarter of 2007 has now been postponed and it actually seems that we won’t be able to spot the player until the end of next year. Worst case scenario the player could be even further delayed and the reason is simply that it hasn’t been able to find any launch partners in Europe. In about two weeks we will now for sure if it will be worth waiting for a whole year extra for Zune, a time the competition will most likely make good use of.
