Posted on Thursday, April 12 2007 @ 2:30 CEST by Thomas De Maesschalck

Engadget reports Microsoft may have two new Zune players in the works.

First there's the new full-size Zune 2.0 and second they have a new smaller flash memory based Zune.

The full-size Zune will look aesthetically similar and have the doubleshot plastics, but will be a bit thinner. The flash device will be video capable and have a large display that "covers about 75% of the [face]", while staying about 3 x 1.25 x 0.25-inches in size. Even though the flash-based device will have the same (lame) WiFi, Microsoft's expecting to pump out 2.4 million next-gen Zune devices before holidays 2007.
