Robbie Bach, the man responsible for Xbox, Zune, and Windows Mobile divisions did mention “We don’t compose phones ourselves. We don’t have any plans to produce phones ourselves. A phone is a very personal thing. Different folks want different types of phones.” Guess that could be taken as a confirmation that a Zune-branded phone is but an impossibility, although that doesn’t mean that the Zune won’t be able to operate as a

piece of software or service on a Windows Mobile-powered device. In addition, Robbie did drop hints of a Zune Touch. I only hope should Microsoft take the touchy-feely route, they will improve on the UI that makes Apple’s iPhone and iPod touch huge sellers.
