The Zune HD will be shipping next week to customers who made and early pre-order from ZuneThings.

We are also now taking order for delivery in week of October 5th.

Once this batch sells out we will update the site with the next delivery date.

Good news for those who pre-ordered the Zune HD from ZuneThings, the first batch of both 16GB and 32GB are on the way and should be delivered in about 2 weeks as expected.

We will be emailing all the pre-orders to give details on how to make payment etc. over the next few days.

Engadget reports that XNA Game Studio development environment has already been released for Zune HD.

This means programmers are able to target the Zune to build custom apps (like the etch-a-sketch app shown above!). Good signs for flourishing app store in the future!
