Well, there has just been a flurry of rumors pertaining to the new Zune becoming available in June.  Before I get to the news, I think MS should release all Zune products in June.  Zune in June….easy to remember and catchy.  Anyway, onto the speculation.  Originally, it was reported that someone from the Office 2010 team indicated on Twitter that “June 2009 will be an important month for Zune lovers”, and for people to avoid buying a Palm Pre or iPhone. Hearing that statement immediately makes me think of the much wanted, but much denied Zune Phone.  What else can one assume from that information? Well, MS spokesperson Brian Seitz said that the Twitter account was not an official MS Office 2010 account, and to not put much stock in the rumors.  Engadget Mobile did confirm that the account was indeed fake. However, when it comes right down to it, what do you really believe?  The guy who twittered admitted it was a hoax, but was it really just a cover-up by MS.  We DO KNOW that there will be new Zune hardware released sometime in 2009.  The rumored specs for the new Zune HD include: AMOLED touchscreen, HDMI output and either 16GB/32GB of storage.  I hope those specs are true with the 32GB of storage.  I guess for the time being it will just be wait and see.  Until the next rumor…maybe tomorrow???
