Scott Erickson, a senior director of product management for Microsoft's Zune effort, said Microsoft is working on Vista compatibility

They are working on Vista compatibility?! Why, did they think the Zune wouldn't have to be Vista compatible? Okay, I get that Vista RTM'd just days before the Zune came out and so there was no way that the Zune would be compatible from the get go; but Microsoft must have known this. Why wasn't there a PR plan in place with information abounding telling everyone how there was going to be an upgrade path and what that path was. No score for Microsoft PR on this front. :(
