Om Malik looks at the Rumors surrounding the Microsoft Zune -- Engadget, Malik notes, is reporting that Zune, Microsoft's "seamless music experience" device/service, will launch on November 14 with 30GB of storage, an FM tuner and Wi-Fi.
"But the big news, according to VoIP Lowdown, is that it will have some sort of VoIP functionality built into the device," Malik writes. "Given that it has wireless connectivity, and Microsoft is talking up presence features in the device, VoIP functionality does make sense. Microsoft has made a strong push in the VoIP space with its Instant Messaging and LCS platforms."
Doing so absolutely makes sense -- so much so that I'd be shocked if Apple didn't counter with VoIP functionality as well. Sound silly? Check out this article on Merrill Lynch's iPhone analysis, or this one on the iPod/iPhone dilemma.
