i had been expecting something huge like this to come out today... and i'm expecting bigger still...
how long till somebody makes an adaptor for the zune to make use of the apple dock connector?
What is a Zune?![]()

Since this is Zune launch day:
Seeing as apple now has a majority of auto makers making connectivity and now the airline industry is getting on board, this is a major blow to the Zune. Neither cars nor airplanes will come with every connection possible so that any media player can be used. This is a great step for apple and potential apple customers.
How about a built-in mag safe connector for the airplanes too?![]()
I would call this "pre-lobothomy"Imagine having two kids in the back of the car, both with their own video screen, watching their own movie, controlling it from their own iPods.

United is the ONLY airline that does this.

What happened to old driving games and conversation?![]()
I fly between Manchester and New Jersey (Newark) a Lot, like 7 or 8 times a year for personal reasons![]()
I'm sure that a 3rd party adaptor will appear to connect an iPod dock connector to whatever kind of connector the Zune ends up using...
Very cool idea. Now, what airlines need to do is publish this information on their websites so you can know when choosing your seats what are the accommodations of 19F.
(Translation by me. I'm not quite sure if the spokesman means 'now', ie. since the announcement, or 'at the moment', ie someting went wrong at the talks.)KLM reacted in surprise at the announcement. 'It is true that there where talks, but the changes of this happening are now/at the moment smaller than ever', said a spokesman from the Dutch airline.

It will happen.
Well, the only airline I remember which had seat-back displays for all passengers was WestJet.
Most airlines that fly trans-atlantic and pacific have individual displays for everybody. In coach, most of them play the same movies and series over and over, but in business/first, most of the time you can choose what to watch, and even pause/stop the movies.
I wonder if British Airways and Qantas wil offer this. After all it's one up on Zune.
Anyway, I fly a mixture of KLM / Northwest Airlines, Continental or British Airways, it would be pretty cool, though most of the time I use my ipod whilst sat in the lounge then when on board I watch their movies, they offer like 6 of them and some good comedy channels.
