One of the side benefits of my activities is that I got to show my family some of the new Zune features and get (brutally) honest feedback from them. I was surprised at how well received it was across the board. The most enthusiastic were the folks who did not one an MP3 player at all. they loved the simplicity of the product. Even the iPod owners commented on how easy it was. most also LOVED the ZunePad. It was actually fun to see them flicking through long lists of songs for no other purpose than to see the tracks scroll by. I've told them all to update their Zunes tomorrow and download the new client and then give me more feedback, which I'll post as it comes in.
