<\/p>\nMicrosoft Zune HD’s specification is out and it is ready for pre-order. After so many days of information on Zune HD, the specification is finally available in PDF format. Specs after the break.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
We have heard so much about the Tegra chip in the Zune HD. But, the specs is always elusive. Even the pre-order site does not have a good specs sheet (which is strange). Nevertheless, the good people of Engadget has managed to get the PDF format of the specs.<\/p>\n
However, there is a typo mistake in the specs sheet (!!), the Zune HD can hold up to 22 \/ 48 hours (16GB \/ 32GB) of video optimized for the device.<\/p>\n
From the specs, seems like the silver one has 32GB and the Onyx Black one has only 16GB of internal memory. And surprise to see that it only support one picture format (JPG).<\/p>\n
I extracted out the specs from the PDF file (Please refer to their official website for specs as the PDF format may not be accurate)<\/p>\n

\n[3] Battery life was tested by Zune in August 2009 using preproduction hardware and device software. Battery tests are conducted with specific Zune units. Actual results may vary. Audio content used was WMA 128 Kbps. Video content used was 320×240 WMV9 500 Kbps total bit rate. Batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually hold less charge. Battery life and the number of charge cycles vary by use and settings. See www.zune.net\/batteries for more information.
