If not it will fail hard.  I prefer my Zune over an ipod but the apps on the touch really set it apart.  I won't buy the HD over a touch if it doesn't have apps

Just wait for the final specs, closer to September. MS hinted at game apps so we'll see if official and/or 3rd party apps are coming. And if they don't have non-game apps they surely won't "fail" as all the kids are saying these days. It's a friggin media player people!!!

Well it won't fail but it won't be a huge success either

i'd like to know which apps are even that needed. i used someone's iphone the other day, and every app that she had and every "featured" or "most downloaded" app was annoying and hard to use, and they seemed quite pointless.

Most are junk, but they are  huge selling point, hence the huge success of the app store.  How can more features be bad?

don't misunderstand me, i hope that the ZHD has apps because that is a huge selling point for a bunch of people, i just don't understand what is so great about them. i guess i'm harder to entertain or impress than most people

Skip to last 20 seconds if you want to just hear the apps part
