Zune Guts

MAKE pal Bunnie took apart and posted high res photos of the new Microsoft Zune music & video player (passed on an extended warranty) - I'm not sure what he's up to, but it's something awesome I'm sure.... The Zune uses a Freescale iMX31L processor (can run Linux it seems)... [via] - Link.

Not to seem pessimistic or anything, but I'm sure that Microsoft will be more than happy to have people running Linux on their hardware. They wouldn't possibly push updates that would render the option to run Linux useless(cough, Xbox?).
