Simple, and it ties into a former Gizmodo story.

It was a noble effort. Alas, all for naught.

In honor of Chen's article last year.

@Jarek James: Hey man, have at it! Just don't be mad when nobody knows what the hell you're talking about ;)
@fakejezuzdiaz: Names of devices we use a ton usually stay named that way, despite an increased level of functioning that has outgrown its own name.
And don't ask me to give examples, I just know they exist, okay!?

Of course people underestimate the R&D required to produce a stable PDA OS, a multi-touch interface, and a world-class browser - because Apple make it look so easy.
Fact it, the Touch is a hard act to follow for anyone, and it looks like MS are starting out with a questionable hardware design, and a sub-standard browser, so they aren't helping their chances at all.
This thing doesn't even hold-up to the initial, pre app store, iPod Touch - but I guess it means that MS have been consistent in their inability to deliver true innovation to the space.
'Me-too' just doesn't cut it - IMHO
But I guess they have to put a finger in the Dike somewhere.....

That said, you're right about one thing. The iPod touch is a hard act to follow, but that's mainly because of the applications. Microsoft's main disadvantage is not having a robust, well-established source of applications for the device.
What I'm curious about most is how they'll handle:
A) Application support/approval, and
B) Application performance (multitasking)
The general consensus is that the Zune has great sound, and is just about equaled with the iPod touch in terms of codec compatibility range. The primary factor is the applications. If they get that right, they can potentially beat it to hell altogether, at least unless/until Apple hits the ground running and pulls something from Steve-O's magic App-in-the-box.

F California.
That is all.
On topic: I am looking forward to this zune as a replacement and am excited about the touch features. To browse the web Ill use my phone, or if I am at a wifi location i'll probably have my computer.

Their problem is with the system of amending the state constitution, which they never complained about until it resulted in a situation which they didn't like.
05/27/09
This country was founded on the idea that while the majority rules, it cannot be at the expense of minority rights. The whole point of an ammendable constitution is to lay out a set of permissions and rights, and be readily updated to keep up with new societal forces that were not considered at the time the constituiton was laid out. To ammend a constitution specifically to deny a group a set of rights is a harsh bastardization of what that document was meant to protect in the first place.

The only thing good they have going for them right now is the Xbox.

I hear that both of those make them a little bit of money.

Not as my main computer...... but as my on the go device? Absolutely! My lappie never leaves home anymore.

You had a chance to be honest, and at least tie the Android and the iPhone. Instead, it's the same ol', um, 'Apple' polishing.
Enjoy the kickback check, guys.

CHART KEY: Number value is time for complete page load in seconds; page rendering is rated from "Fail" to "Excellent" for each; and the color (red, yellow, green) indicates overall performance taking into account both speed and rendering accuracy: Green = good overall, Red = fail overall.

Instinct takes 2+ min to load WSJ = Excellent, but Dare fails at 38 seconds (both red?)
Bold gets an excellent at 2.5 mins on Wiki (red), instinct does 52 sec (green)?

Yes this is all user opinions in the end, but after leaving both the EDGE iPhone and 3G iPhone for the HTC Touch Pro (on AT&T), Safari just feels lacking when compared to Opera on the right phone. Plus you should take into account the amazing amount of times Safari crashes while the stability of other web browsers is a step above (namely Opera).
