16GB Zune - The Big Little one

During our conversation with our inside source at Microsoft we brought up the possibility for a Zune 16. We know the iPod touch is introducing a 16gb model and had to ask if the Zune would compete in that market segment. Our source simply indicated that no 16gb Zune was currently in production, but it seemed a logical step forward. The Zune 16 may be the last stand alone MP3 device prior to the convergence of the player and cell phone. A Zune phone may be coming in 2009. Until then look for a 16gb Zune in fall of 2008 as part of the next generation Zune lineup.
