Anyone know anything about this? If true, this could be huge for Sirius.

Re: Zing VS Zune??
Some speculate (myself included) that they are one and the same thing. There are many reasons why I continue to believe that a Microsoft/Sirius partnership has been in the works for a while now. Here are just a few:
1. Microsoft is helping Sirius work the kinks out for streaming color video (fact). There have been rumors of video for both devices.
2. Zune/Stiletto will have Wi-Fi capabilities.
3. Both devices will have a "buy" button
4. The expected release dates of both units
5. The secrecy and buzz surrounding both devices.
5. The "leaked" picture clearly showing Sirius on the Zune's color display.
5. Siri's content would be a perfect catalyst for Microsoft's "Ipod Killer"
6. It truly would be a win-win for both companies. Sirius would get Microsoft's vast resources while Microsoft would receive Siri's exclusive content (NFL, NHL, Nascar, Howard, ect.)
---Imagine an Ipod with live streaming color video with the content explained above. This device will not just be another MP3 player, but, will be innovative in ways that will change the way people listen (or watch), manage, and store their music and video files. Jam On Longs! |

| Sirius announced "video services" over their satellite plan like a year ago. |

| Yes, I know that. What I was commenting on was the SIRI MSFT partnership, which I was not aware of. Sirius capability built into the new Microsoft player could be big. |
