Zune 2 Just Around the Corner?

According to various sources around the web, the Zune 2 is just around the corner, as is a new piece of firmware that will be functional on all versions of the device. It’s unknown what functionality the firmware will add, but what’s important is that the Zune 2 will be here before we know it! We’ve seen leaked images in the past, so there is nothing to get really excited over, but hopefully Microsoft will have a surprise or two for us.

Here it is, direct from a trusted source close to the situation — a Zune 1 running firmware 2.1, which will bring all the Zune 2 software goodies and UI tweaks with it when those bad boys are announced on Wednesday. That’s right, we also have confirmation that Microsoft will be making the Zune 2 announcement on Wednesday, which should give the Zune tattoo guy plenty of time to get some new ink before the holidays.
