Is Zune Ugly?

Monday, November 20, 2006 by Salman Siddiqui

This is what CNN anchors are describing zune like. It isnt anywhere near iPod!

"The ugly and clashing colors of the Zune might be something that Microsoft can easily change, but the thickness of the Zune is a killer for this class of devices. Microsoft isn't alone in this sin, just about every single iPod competitor on the market make the same mistakes over and over again. When will Apple's competitors get a clue that you cannot beat the iPod unless the device looks like a nice fashion accessory?"
