MS Adds New Art and Color to the Zune

MS has added 46 brand new designs to its Zune Originals line.  The art available is now broken down into three categories:  Artist, Zodiac, and Tattoo.  The artist series contains 32 unique designs.  They are honestly amazing.  I have the Tado design on my pink Zune4.  The etching is awesome!!!  The second category is new- Zodiac.  Zodiac designs feature artwork from Catalina Estrada and Iosefatu Sua.  Catalina tackles all of the Western Astrology, while Iosefatu explores Eastern Astrology.  The designs are gorgeous, and I love my Pisces artwork.  Finally, the Tattoo designs are a little simpler than the other two categories, but just as striking.  The bonus with the Tattoo designs is that you can still add text to go along with the art.  If you are thinking about getting a Zune, it is well worth the extra $15 for the artwork.  This is one program from MS that I do not believe gets the attention it deserves.  Where else can you get specially made and designed electronics?  The second big excitement, to go along with the added designs, is that more evidence was discovered of a blue Zune120 on its way.  Thanks to JohnnyWest at Zunerama for spotting the note about a currently unreleased Zune hard drive color.  I am very happy about this news!!!  I have been waiting for a blue Zune since Gen. 1.  Now, the blue is currently available for the 16 GB, but I have been waiting for a blue hard drive Zune.  So, if Santa Bill Gates is listening, I have been a very good Zuner this year.  (Blue Zune120 with Pisces design)  I know he may be retired, but I am sure he still has connections.
