Report: Nvidia's Tegra Bags Zune HD Deal
Several reports today claim that Nvidia has confirmed the use of its Tegra platform in Microsoft’s Zune HD.
The rumors have been flying around for hours and PC Perspective claims to have known since speaking with Nvidia back in June, at Computex but was unaware that people might actually want to know that Tegra has its first major design win.
The Zune HD packs a 3.3-inch (16:9) OLED, HD Radio, HDMI out supporting up to 720p, WiFi (with Microsof’s Internet Explorer, of course) and the all important accelorometer. We keep saying if Microsoft were to add a phone to this device we'd be all over it and now that its got Tegra under the hood, we're even more disappointed it's just a regular old PMP.
That said, coupled with Nvidia’s graphics, we’d say the Zune HD is going to be a huge step up from some of the older Zunes. Anyone (besides us) interested?

It means they got it, obtained it. To that effect.
Yeah, I guess my point is one shouldn’t use a idiom in the title of a news piece…since it can go either way
Repeat after me: "Would you like fries with that, Sir?"
“We decided to bag McDonald's for Wendy’s, since my buddy wanted to bag a quadruple Baconator.”
I actually like the Zune software, but I do agree with you. I would wish that they give users the capability of treating the device as if it were an external storage device. That way you could just drag music and crap over using Explorer if you don't want to install a proprietary software on your computer.
It'd be great to be able to use Zunes on Linux. Not that I don't have a dual-boot, but still, it'd be nice.
