In today’s Zune’s scheduled software update, the rumoured Zune Phone is pretty much confirmed. The .INF file of the new Zune software (version 4.2.202.0) contains evidence that a Zune Phone is on its way.
The .INF file is used to associate devices with its proper driver. The new zune.inf is responsible for associating the device with the driver.
The new Zune.inf contains tell-tale evidence that a Zune Phone is on its way.
