 No cutout for interface cable July 16, 2008
This is a very attractive and stylish case, but it has two usability flaws. 1.) It is impossible to connect the charging/USB cable while the Zune is in this case because there is no cutout in the case for the connector. This means that you cannot use this case with the Zune car pack. 2.) The cutout for the audio connector is small in diameter, so some cables cannot be inserted if the plastic housing of the connector is too thick. Of course there is no problem with official Zune cables. My complaints aside, I love the look of the case, especally the cloth lining with the red highlighed trim on the inside of the cover. The magnetic catch for the cover is aslo a nice touch.
 Poor Design July 9, 2008
While this case is sturdy enough to protect your Zune, its design is hopelessly flawed. There is no clear protective cover for the display screen, which is unfortunately the one place where most MP3 players are damaged by scuff marks, scratches and fingerprints. The opening for the headphone jack on the one I bought was off center, and too narrow. I had to hollow it out with a razor knife just to get the headphones and aux cords to attach properly. But the biggest flaw in my opinion is that the jack for the synch cable is completely enclosed by this case - meaning that everytime you want to charge your Zune, or add/delete content, you have to completely remove the Zune from the cover in order to do so. This renders the "protective" case useless.
I've already ordered a replacement case that will allow me to charge my Zune and/or connect it to my PC without having to handle the Zune out of its protective jacket, because that's when it's most likely to be damaged.
 Bold and Beautiful June 30, 2008
After searching through several other case variations I settled on the style and minimalistic nature of the Microsoft case. This case is very attractive and feels solid. It is clear that a lot of care was taken in the construction of this item. The leather is great and I've yet to have a problem with using the buttons or the Squircle. One thing that came as a surprise is a small pocket on the inside of the case. The pink band is actually the lip of the pocket.
The lack of a sync cable opening is a bit disappointing. However, the side loading of the case allows for quick removal for charging and syncing.
Investigate and search out the best deal. I purchased mine for just around $20 and it was worth every penny.

Actually fits the 80 GB. One down side, can not plug on sync/charger cord while in the case. Other than that nice slimmer fit for 80GB

My nephew, age 16 and a Zune owner, too, said, "That leather case is really cool! Where can I get one?"
