I can't say I didn't see this one coming. It appears a 16GB version of Microsoft's flash Zune will be joining the party along with the recently leaked 120GB Zune. Nothing else appears to be changed in these upcoming models, just a good old capacity bump. The flash Zune hasn't exactly been a crowd favorite, but it's still nice to see Microsoft catching up to the competition. I use the words "catching up" loosely since the current high watermark is set at 32GB's.



Speaking frankly here, Microsoft should just scrap the current flash model altogether and release something brand new. I mean, we all know Apple will be releasing new iPods this September. It would be in Microsoft's best interest to be aggressive and release something to match those players, and even surpass them. Always playing catchup just shows me they're still not taking this industry seriously enough. Hopefully they prove me wrong in the upcoming months.
