Finally, Microsoft has released a Zune commercial that actually shows the player, unlike these seven. Continue reading to watch. Jason Chen of Gizmodo says:
It may be just us, but does it look like this is a huge graveyard of Zunes? That’s kinda creepy, and we’re not sure it’s the angle Microsoft is going for. Unless of course they’re marketing towards the untapped potential of kids who hang out in graveyards and share music.

Shaped like a salt shaker, it looks like fun to hold down a button and shake it, making it change its tune. With its built-in speakers, it makes all kinds of fun sound effects, too…watch it being tested by the reviewer’s four-year-old son, who seems to really like it

This followup to the R2 for D2 project by Captain Odegard, builds upon that creation by giving the Cowon D2 player its own Jukebox-inspired enclosure, complete with LED lights. Continue reading to see it in action.
Decided to go with only one backlighting color for plexi, didn’t see point in having it flash as it’s not the part of the jukebox that is supposed to be disco.

R2 for D2 is basically a homemade Cowon D2 dock that was created by “CaptainØdegård” in just under 10-hours. Short video after the break.
All in all under 10 hours of real work I’m guessing, usually a day’s work on this thing means 5 min in basement painting or gluing something and then leaving it for the next day. So, with that in mind, and the fact that it basically consists of a $10 hobby wood plate and a $3 speaker. The video shows a box sticking out in the back… That’s battery compartment and controls for speakers
