Well here's Microsofts basic description of this customized Zune:
Exclusively at GameStop: the custom Zune™ Halo 3® Edition. What could be better for the hardcore Halo 3 fan looking for a portable digital media player that deliv-ers?! And does it deliver. The limited edition black Zune is deco-rated with Halo graphics both front and back. And, it comes packed with a collection of content that showcases Zune’s out-standing music, video and picture capabilities. Zune starts with a 30GB digital media player and adds a twist. You can wirelessly share selected full-length sample tracks, playlists, pictures or your home-grown tracks directly from Zune to Zune.1 You can listen to the full-length songs that you receive up to three times in three days, flag the ones you like and easily buy them the next time you sync up. You can discover new music in the Zune Marketplace, and show off your favorite pictures and videos on the big, bright screen. Zune has all that and a built in FM tuner, too. Let your inner DJ run wild.
