Zune HD gets new apps

Are you Zune HD fans? Let us know what you think of the new games and apps!

The Zune HD, which was recently rolled up and borged into the Windows Phone 7 brand, has received no less than nine new apps. Seven new games, two new applications

(including timetable!), And three updated applications are available and ready for your Zune HD now in the Zune Marketplace.

If you’re a Zune HD owner (bless your heart), the new apps should show up and be loadable if you’ll just open up your Zune player. I know I’ll be downloading these

— my Zune HD is still going strong, and I plan to make it last for at least a couple more years.

Zune HD firmware update

It has been a good week for Zune HD owners. Microsoft surprised device owners on Wednesday by releasing a firmware update for the Zune HD. The new firmware, version 4.5 (114) does not include new features. By contrast, fixes a problem with rogue security certificates in Internet Explorer. Microsoft started rolling out a similar update for Windows Phone in early May.

The latest Zune firmware update for the HD version 4.5 (109), was released on April 5, 2010. Microsoft has decided to focus its efforts on Windows Phone, but the software giant has continued to support the Zune HD over the years.
