A colleague at office got a Zune from Redmond. As far as I know (and since I know everything :-)), we've officially labelled it the first Zune in India. In reality, it may be the 125th but that doesn't sound so cool, does it?
We also took photos. Here they are, in grand Engadget style. As you can see, we suck at taking photos :-)

Once we heard the news, we all huddled around the new addition to our family. My impressions?
- It feels soft and silky. As opposed to the iPod which feels sleek. The Zune is *very* nice to touch - you don't want to let go
- The videos are of high quality. To my rough eye, I would say that it is better than the PSP
- The UI is very nice and smooth - especially all the zooming and fading when going from screen to screen
- It looks bulkier than the iPod :-(. When you hold it though, you can't discern any weight difference

The Zune - in all it's glory!
Side shot. The blue 'double shot' becomes quite prominent. It definitely gives the Zune a distinctive visual look
Another shot of the Zune but without a flash.
Aarthi playing a video on the Zune. Videos are really pretty and look better than how they do on my PSP
