Let’s…Roll?

Respectfully standing out of the way of Apple and their Let’s Rock event tomorrow, Microsoft has shown their Zune hand, and it looks like a full house, folks.

Check out their press release for full details.

There are several cool features in here, most of which make me strongly consider purchasing a Zune player (my “Young Buck”-branded iPod Photo is a tank, though!), including wireless Marketplace integration on the player, Buy from FM functionalilty, and the ability to download Audiobooks and Games for your Zune player.  Since I haven’t purchased a Zune yet though, I was even more interested in the Zune 3.0 client software update.  I’ll let the following video speak for itself…

I’m all about trance visualizations in my software (Milkdrop, how I miss thee), but the Mixview is really tasty.  Any features you are hoping for that haven’t been mentioned yet?
