Staring funny man Bill Maher, Religulous tells the story of one man trying to find his way to cosmic clarity. Yes, I’m kidding. Really it’s a documentary poking fun at all that may be wrong with believing in a higher power. |

You haven’t had enough excitement today dear ZuneSpring reader? You want more news from the update bonanza happening today? Friend of the site Josh has spotted support for .avi files in the software. How did he spot it you ask? Yeah he just hit play. Sadly still no support for .avi on the device side of things but until that comes later this spring you’ll be able to have the Zune software convert movies to wmv or mp4 and then sync them over.

Those who follow the ZuneSpring on my personal Twitter will know that tomorrow starts a big week for us. First at Mobile World Conference Microsoft is preparing for what could very well be the keynote to make or break Steve Ballmer’s career as well as change the face of both Windows Mobile & Zune alike. Also I’ll be heading to Microsoft’s Redmond Campus for what surely will be one of the most exciting experiences of my life, the MVP Summit. Because of both of these event’s I’ll be taking the week off from my full time job. You know what that means, an entire week to bring ZuneSpring up to where it should be without interference from the real world. Tell me what new areas you would like to see, or where no frontiers you would like us to venture into. I will not stop until this site is the best it can possibly be and that involves each and every person who reads, and enjoys what we do here.
