Zunerama UI Changes

Zunerama has a great list of things that their users have spotted in the new UI that are different from the current Zune UI. Personally I'm really psyched about the new UI because the current one is one of the best UIs created for a portable device ever in my not so humble opinion. All I've seen from the new UI is what appear to be refinements.

My favorite note off of Zunerama's list of changes they've spotted is that the volume indicator goes to 40 instead of 20. While it’s possible the max volume is higher than the current Zune, I doubt it would be significantly higher. More likely this means that there is increased sensitivity in the volume adjustment. Currently I play mine anywhere from 1 - 4 on the volume meter depending on background noise.

I also like that podcasts are given an entirely separate menu system from the music. Currently if I'm playing my entire collection of tracks, I may suddenly find myself listening to a podcast. That's not really desirable. Separating the podcasts into their own section is a nice touch.

I'm sure there will be many things we won't know until we actually use them. I can't wait!
