Microsoft has hired Toshiba to manufacture its upcoming Zune music and video player. The news came out in some documents Toshiba filed with the Federal Communications Commission to get approval for the project.

I tried to get in to the filings, but the FCC site seems to be swamped right now. You can see some pictures of the Zune in some Frankenstein-ish laboratory setup here. Mobilewhack links to this FCC site as the place to review documents.
