I've decided to put my money where my mouth is in regards to accessories partners. We are almost ready to select the next wave of accessories manufacturers for the Spring season. Since the entire reason I started this blog was to have a direct dialog with the Zune community, I thought what better way than to let you guys decide who one of the partners should be? So, here's what I'm going to do.

Step one: I'll take partner nominations in the comments section of this post. I want you guys to tell me which company and which product and why. There's no word limit to your description. Assume I've never heard of the company. If you happen to have a contact for that company, you can email me directly.

Step two: Here's where I need some help. I'll take the top 8 suggestions and make a survey if someone can help me with a blogger-based survey form. I'll post it for a week and let you guys vote on it. If for some reason nobody can help me with the survey, I'll do a simple majority of nominations. Before you start to stuff the comment box, I'll let you know if we turn on that option.
