<p>If you got a 30gb zune with the latest firmware im 99.9% sure that it looks exactly like mine pictured above as of 12/31/08.  It seems like they all died around midnight last night probabaly some issue with the software.  Hopefully the folks in <a href="http://www.zune.net">Redmond</a>working on the issue cause im starting to feel lonely.   Im glad I keep some music on the Curve though.  I will let you alll know when the issue gets resolved check back soon.</p>

<p>For those that dont care about voiding their warranty then follow the steps <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5121618/how-to-revive-dead-zunes-30s">here</a> to disconnect your battery and hard drive.  You should be up and running after that. I think im going to wait until 1/1/09 to see if it works.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/12/31/zune.player.failures/index.html">CNN</a> reporting on the widespread issue.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><a href="http://www.zune.net/en-us/support/zune30.htm">Zune Fix</a></span> The fix is to wait until 1/1/09 around 7am eastern or 4am pacific and then reconnect the zune and let it sync with the software and everything should be ok.</h2>
