Seattle Post Intelligencer has posted the best video yet of the second generation of Zune PMP - the 80GB hard drive-version that is. The first thing I noticed is that the text labels the root menu are huge. That alone dominates the entire 3.2" screen. There are two new items - social and podcasts. The 'social' apparently replaces 'community' of previous Zune for tune sharing, and 'podcasts', well, is pretty self-expanatory. To get around, you can either hold down a direction on the D-pad to scroll up or down the list, or move your thumb in a circular motion. Then you can swipe your thumb horizontally, push the center button, or press on a direction on the D-pad to start playing back a file. The playback screen generally looks familiar with the album art occupying most of the screen. You can check out the 12 observations eagle-eyed ZuneRama discovered on the new Zune. Video of the interface after the jump. - Get Microsoft Zune (second generation, 80GB, black) now for $16.22 at Amazon.com
