I don't think so but you can use the aux. Who would want a zune anyway.

yeah you can use the aux input that comes with all scions stock. it wont let you control the mp3 player from the HU, but itll work. just go out to radioshack and buy a cable to connect it up.

I bought my cable at Wal-Mart for five bucks, and I'm blown away about how nice this thing sounds.
It's a heck of a lot better then the good old FM modulator I've used.

As far as a Zune dedicated connection, they've only had a 2% market share so far, so it’s gonna be awhile till you see it in a Scion or any car for that matter.

The Zune is horrible... I sell them and get nothing but negative feedback.

there's mine. I'm not quite sure why everyone knocks the zune. Anyone care to elaborate as to why it is a turd. Mine works flawlessly. I also own a sansa, and I have used Iods in the past. The zune is by far may favorite. It has a better screen by far than the Ipod, the software has no frills, the interface is easy to use, and it's reasonably priced.

Love my Zune. I don't even bother with CD's any more. I got my cable for $12 at Radio Shack. It's 1/8" to 1/8" standard audio cable. Same one that the I(paid a lot of money for a marketing gimmick)Pod uses.

Yeah, fanboys

But if you're used to the inferior horse-dung that is Windows, then you're going to love your Zune - well, not even the Windows fanboys like the Zune.

Just Google Zune reviews and see why it blows. I know when I had one in hand, I had to laugh at not only the pathetic (once again) ripoff of the iPod, but crappy software and system errors on the test PC.

I won't even go into the BROWN TURD version...

Bottom line, if you like it, then rock on.

everyone is just on their apple bandwagon... half the kids dont know how to use the dang things... other that tape morphed pictures of themselves, and put them on myspace.


the zune is awesome.. bigger screen than that crappy ilame.

Hey.. all i am saying is.. if the dumb bimbo next door is rockin' and ipod.. then i think its time we reevaluate our society...

go ZUNE!!

if you want a clean look with crappy sound.. get the belkin FM dock... for the zune.. its clean

LOL. Yeah, the Zune rulez dood.
If you want to see where Apple is going, look at the iPhone.
MS on the other hand, has a design that's where Apple was years ago - and the "scroll wheel" isn't.

Come on, if you like cheap junk that pretends to be something good, then cool.
If you want the best digital music player, get an iPod.

Oh, and the "dumb bimbo" you speak of is likely one of the girls in the pix here that you and other guys spank their monkeys over, so be careful who you insult...

You act as if the Zune runs Windows or something..which is actually not as bad as you make it out to be. If it were, the world would be in chaos as most of the world's computers are running Windows. Just because you can't manage to get the hang of a GUI doesn't mean something sucks.

Not everyone wants to pay more money for the same product that's been re-released 6 or 7 different times over the last few years. God forbid the Zune have more features than the IPod while costing the same as Apple's comparable models. That would be an ISin.

FYI...the Zune is actually a Samsung Gigabeat in Microsoft clothing.

Now I have to go watch a movie on my 3" screen.

EDIT: Yeah...look at the IPhone. It costs $500 w/ 2 yr contract, from no one else but Cingular...no 3G...no Bluetooth...no 3rd party software. Yeah...seems like a great idea to pay that much for a phone that's using 3 year old technology. But then again, I suppose if you're buying IPod's...that idea doesn't seem so stupid.

Ooooow, a big 3" screen?
Dang dude, I'll continue watching movies on my 62" plasma with Blu Ray and HD DVD.

You can enjoy movies on your little toy tho. Is it HD?

The 3" screen remark was sarcastic. We all have big TV's...stay on topic.
