I have to agree with you over the use of the Zune. My Zune 80 has become an incredible learning tool. I listen to Podcasts (mostly technical stuff like Dot Net Rocks or This Week In Tech) during my commute, while cutting the grass, doing household stuff, heck even when shopping.
I also enjoy the video aspects, sometimes I’ll watch a bit before going to sleep at night, or waiting on my wife to do her shopping. I love the ability to hook it to my TV and watch shows there as well. Takes a lot of the processing power off my laptop and frees it up for me to do the code samples, etc.
