Zune Repair: Replacing a Flash Zune’s Glass
March 6th, 2009Over a year ago I bought a second generation Microsoft Zune. I bought the highest capacity available with flash-based storage (8GB), instead of the higher capacity hard drive-based options, because I’ve already broken two like players in my lifetime—a forth generation 40GB Apple iPod and a first generation Creative Zen Vision (no suffix).
This time the problem wasn’t the storage. Last week I broke my 8GB, second generation Microsoft Zune, but this time I could repair the thing myself!
Zune falls, Zune cracks. :-(
February 24th, 2009Today something tragic happened. I was walking down the hall, and as I took my Zune out of my pocket, I fumbled the device, and it fell flat on it’s face (screen) onto the hard floor. The poor thing’s front glass cracked, and now it’s sad.
