Updated impressions of the Zune HD

Updated impressions of the Microsoft Zune HD
I have been using my Zune HD on and on off for the last couple of weeks now, alternating between my Zune 120 and HD. One clear difference that I have noticed with the 120 and HD is that the HD has much much better sound then what the 120 has. If I listen to 50 Cents latest album I will notice a clear difference between the two different units.
One thing that I really enjoy about my HD is the fact that it is so thin. I can carry it with me all the time and having it in my jeans pocket. It is actually not much bigger then my wallet actually. An accessory that I can really recommend for the HD is the Invisible Shield. I actually had a small scratch at the bottom of my device, and to this day I have not regretted it. It has saved my Zune HD from scratches a lot of times. I am one of those persons that can put a lot of things in my pocket without really thinking about it.
The colors on the HD are in one word amazing. When you watch either a movie or a TV show downloaded from the Zune marketplace you will notice how nice it feels to look at the screen. You have the option of watching either Standard definition or High definition content on that screen from Zune marketplace. They truly have created a portable device.
In around the design of the Zune HD I have the Platina version 32 GB. It is really good looking IMHO. It is a color that works both in dark and light areas. The controls of the ZUNE HD are easy to understand. At the top of the device you have a on and off button, on the left side you have a control button which allows you to access the controls of your device through the software and on the front control button which allows you to control the device to get to the home screen.
Web surfing is actually surprisingly good. With the latest 4.3 update they have made the websurfing more refined. It is much easier to use and control. The games that Microsoft have added with the 4.3 update is really exciting. Driving a Ferrari through the streets or surfing around is amazing with the 3D gaming capability.
