It would appear that Microsoft's newest music player is almost ready to be released.
After a supposed price leak reported at MaximumPC, I received an email about preordering. It seems to be available at Amazon, Bestbuy, Walmart, and the "Microsoft Store." The 16 GB version is $219.99, while the 32 GB version is $289.99. Maybe they'll actually advertise this time - the Zune has always been an excellent, feature-rich player.

Here is the preorder link!

The player is also apparently available from Newegg.
