Update (12th May, 21:36): This Twitter account is a hoax. The official Microsoft account is @office2010movie. The @officethemovie Twitter account did look slightly suspicious to me in the first place but I reposted it when I saw that other technology sites (which obviously hadn’t checked either) posted it. Sorry.
The rumour mill has been in full action today after Microsoft wrote on their @officethemovie Twitter account:
June 2009 will be an important month for Zune lovers. New product launch, that’s all I’m allowed to say. Hold off from buying an iPhone/Pre.
As the new iPhone is due to be unveiled in June, as well as the Palm Pre, many people think that this refers to a Zune phone from Microsoft.
Alternatively, this could simply refer to Zune software being available on Windows Mobile 7 which is out in the second half of this year.
There’s a bit more coverage and discussion over at Engadget. Watch this space.
