Hey guys - quick but important question. As some of you may have seen - was thinking of picking up either a Zune HD or Touch 3G - but a very important question first.

Does the Zune HD support 802.1x/WPA authentication for wireless (so called "enterprise")?

I know the current Zune definitely does not, and this would be a deal breaker for me, living on a college campus with useless wi-fi everywhere. Given that the target audience of most touch music devices partly/largely be that college crowd, I find it hard to believe MS would omit such an important feature - but go figure. Google says no - but I just wanted to confirm

Thanks

Well, it works depending on the configuration you have at the college. Mainly depending on how you login to the network. Talk with your college IT department.

right now there's no Enterprise support. they're working on it but who knows as to when...
