The technical team jumped on the problem immediately and isolated the issue: a bug in the internal clock driver related to the way the device handles a leap year. The issue should be resolved over the next 24 hours as the time change moves to January 1, 2009. We expect the internal clock on the Zune 30GB devices will automatically reset tomorrow (noon, GMT). By tomorrow you should allow the battery to fully run out of power before the unit can restart successfully then simply ensure that your device is recharged, then turn it back on.

I\'m glad I didn\'t just get one for Xmas that died today, though! I\'ve had my 30g Zune about a year and haven\'t had any issues at all, until this. I\'m going to try the "let the battery die & change the computer date" option and see if that works until they get around to a fix for it.</div>\

The technical team jumped on the problem immediately and isolated the issue: a bug in the internal clock driver related to the way the device handles a leap year. The issue should be resolved over the next 24 hours as the time change moves to January 1, 2009. We expect the internal clock on the Zune 30GB devices will automatically reset tomorrow (noon, GMT). By tomorrow you should allow the battery to fully run out of power before the unit can restart successfully then simply ensure that your device is recharged, then turn it back on. If you’re a Zune Pass subscriber, you may need to sync your device with your PC to refresh the rights to the subscription content you have downloaded to your device.<br><br><br><br>Customers can continue to stay informed via the support page on <a href="http://zune.net" rel="nofollow">zune.net</a> (zune.net/support).<br><br><br><br>We know this has been a big inconvenience to our customers and we are sorry for that, and want to thank them for their patience.<br><br><br><br>Q: Why is this issue isolated to the Zune 30 device?<br><br>It is a bug in a driver for a part that is only used in the Zune 30 device.<br><br><br><br>Q: What fixes or patches are you putting in place to resolve this situation?<br><br>This situation should remedy itself over the next 24 hours as the time flips to January 1st.<br><br><br><br>Q: What’s the timeline on a fix?<br><br>The issue Zune 30GB customers are experiencing today will self resolve as time changes to January 1.<br><br><br><br>Q: Why did this occur at precisely 12:01 a.m. on December 31, 2008?<br><br>There is a bug in the internal clock driver causing the 30GB device to improperly handle the last day of a leap year.<br><br><br><br>Q: What is Zune doing to fix this issue?<br><br>The issue should resolve itself.<br><br><br><br>Q: Are you sure that this won’t happen to all 80, 120 or other flash devices?<br><br>This issue is related to a part that is only used in Zune 30 devices.<br><br><br><br>Q: How many 30GB Zune devices are affected?<br><br>All 30GB devices are potentially affected.<br><br><br><br>Q: Will you update the firmware before the next leap year (2012)?<br><br>Yes.<br>Matt Akers<br>Zune Product Team<br>reply</div>\

It seems to me that it was just a mistake.  I know I\'ve made them.  What would really suck is if everytime I made a mistake, I had to give everyone standing around me a whole bunch of free stuff.
