    Which do you think is better? Personally I think that the User Interface (UI) of the Zune is better, but that the iPod touch does just about everything else better than the Zune.

    The iPod touch is the most useful portable electronic device I have ever owned in my life. I don't think I could imagine my life without it.

    For a IPHONE and IPOD TOUCH based community my suspicions tell me that the iPod Touch may win out

    Because the Zune sucks.

    maybe zune has a better hardware but that's nothing in todays world.

    chineese make good hardware for good years but their software is buggy, useless and limited.

    microsoft joined them as i don't see a good SDK, a good store, people getting involved.

    i guess it takes time, but apple is well ahead and don't see anyone getting close to them.

    maybe a chance will have android but not zune..

    edit: and by the way, for music listening, movie viewing and document(pdf) reading, chineese do a good enough job, just look up onda vx797hd with a 7" display at less than 100 euro. what do you say about that zune?!

    Lol, the Zune 'supposedly' has better hardware, but it takes almost 10 seconds to open a calculator. a freakin calculator...which isn't even a native app!!!

    As someone said above, good hardware means nothing these days. It's all about user experience.

    iPod Touch + iTunes + iTMS + AppStore = easy, convenient, modern lifestyle.

    Zune's screen looks a lot better when you use it in the sun, but iTunes blows "whatever the zune's is called" out of the water! The apps are the biggest deal for me.
    But, I do like the look of the Zune HD a bit more. It's one nice lookin player! :D

    Not the best place to do this poll...
    But I agree the Zune looks fancier.

    If it weren't for the app store I'd probably go for the Zune HD as I prefer it as a media player.

    But the app store does exist, so I voted for the Touch.

    this website has your answer. be sure ro read the user reviews, some really funny ones! http://hideapod.com

    "So the Zune can wirelessly “squirt” tunes to other Zunes. It’s not like there are any other Zune users to share songs with anyway."

    Well, what do you want? A device that can play games, has a lot of apps (which is the iPod Touch)? OR. Do you want a device that can play back HD movies?

    also, wrong place to ask, this forum is kinda biased due to the fact that it's a iPhone and iPod Touch gaming forum.
