Who doesn't love tearing apart new gadgets?
On this, the day of the Zune HD launch, you are probably either fast asleep or just starting your morning's work. However, feedback over the last few weeks leads us to believe that once you do wake up/finish work, plenty of you are planning on picking up the just-launched Zune HD.
So before you purchase, perhaps you'd like to see what it looks like inside?
That's right, despite the fact that the Zune HD just launched a few hours ago, someone has already torn the device asunder. Laid its insides out on the operating table and shamelessly photographed them from every angle. Yay!
In case anyone is wondering, the "For Our Princess" you see on the inside cover of is in memory of a Zune team member who passed away while the device was in development. The rest of her teammates have dedicated the Zune HD to her.

That looks like a sa-weet player! Gotta love that website name: anythingbutipod.com!
Good catch.
yeah, except there's no room for the phone transceivers...
"Does anyone notice in the last shot that empty space that looks like it could physically hold a SIM card?"
Sorry to dissapoint you guys but where do you think this chip on the ribbon connector sticking up in the center goes when folded down ?!?
The chip goes right into the hole and then the main board on top and the three conectors then snap on the top of the main board.
Better them then ECS
what a nice clean build
