Come onnnnnnn bring back the Zune

Would definitely be curious to see what a 2023 phone version of a Zune would look like.

No just Zune maybe with a little Bluetooth.

Bring back the brown color and they got a sale from me.

I wanna disconnect from my phone sometimes and just Zune out.

But how will they track you?

Seriously, that's (I suspect) the reason why Apple killed the iPod (the og one)

Windows Phone with TikTok and AI

OK, maybe I'm not as interested in it anymore haha!

"The first AI powered mobile OS"...

But it's a decades old version of Windows Mobile with badGPT everything.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Summer is drawing to a close, which means the busy fall season of tech events is almost upon us.

Microsoft has marked its territory by sending out save-the-date invites to a "special event" in New York City on September 21st, but the company hasn't provided any details on what to expect as yet.

This could very well be Microsoft's major fall hardware event, during which the company typically reveals its latest Surface devices and other gear.

If so, that would mean Microsoft is moving back to its old late September slot after switching to an October date last year.

In any case, given the company's focus over the past year or so, it's likely to talk quite a bit about its various AI endeavors during this showcase.

Apple usually shows off its latest slate of iPhones (which may or may not have USB-C charging ports this year) in early- to mid-September, but it hasn't confirmed a date yet.
