Chevy Camaro evidently nabs Microsoft Zune support
"You've heard of Chevrolet, right? You know -- that struggling automaker underneath the General Motors umbrella? For those who've long given up their ties to muscle cars in favor of the kid-friendly minivan or Earth-friendly hybrid, you may not even know that a revitalized Camaro is just around the bend. Based on some hands-on time with a production vehicle at an undisclosed dealer, Microsoft's Zune integrates perfectly into the sound system, and said integration is supposedly a standard feature on the car. What's more is that we're told some 27 other GM models will also include Zune support from the factory as they launch in the US, Europe, Asia and Australia through 2011, though details beyond that are scant. Hope they cooked in support for the Zune HD, ya dig?"

Zunes are amazing. Had one before I bought the iPhone which I use for basically everything now. I'd much rather have a Zune than an iPod, though.

Zunes are better than iPods.... They just don't have the market share that apple does...

Don't like the Zune but this is good for those that have one. Good job GM!

i have only messed with a zune like twice, and not for very long, it was hard to navigate compared to an iPod, just about anyone can pick it up and use it with out any problems. the hardest thing is turning it off. i mean, really? hold play=off?

I test drove a car on Saturday May 9th. Salesman said there was an Ipod port in the console....I guess I'll wait for the Owner's Manual for clarification...

Sales Numbers are useless... the mustang is probably going to have higher sales numbers than the Camaro... Does that make it better? I think not

It's actually pretty stupid of GM to go with the Zune. Their market share is a joke so you are trying to put in something that benefits very few people. |
