The fiasco that plagued the 30GB Zunes yesterday can now be forgotten since the date change has reset this seemingly ridiculous problem.  If you have this trouble and are not already aware, all you need do now is let the battery drain and wait until after 12PM on January 1st before you plug in your Zune to yout PC. Hopefully Microsoft can prevent this in the future with a firmware update to its programming.  Fo now the world of vintage Zune has been saved.
