Zune + Windows Mobile = Better Together?

What are some ways the Zune player and a Windows Mobile device can work better together? I'm not referring to an imaginary "Zune phone", and I'm certainly not hinting or speculating about a converged device.

Instead, I'm wondering if there are any opportunities for us to improve the experience for people who use both devices (a Zune and a Windows Mobile phone). For example, viewing your Zune Social network in IEMobile, converting a Zune playlist into .WMA ringtones, converting Zune's artwork to Windows Mobile themes, showing your Windows Mobile contacts as pictures in Zune etc.

re: Zune + Windows Mobile = Better Together?

Personally, I wish the Zune Forums worked better on my WM5 phone...I check most of my email, read the newspaper, and do most other things on my phone; the Zune Forums are hard because of the Zune Cards (no Flash support).

Unfortunately for me, I'm the person who would need to fix this. Or at least on the team that would. I better get cracking! :-)

re: Zune + Windows Mobile = Better Together?

I'd just be happy with the opportunity to play with a Windows Mobile Phone ^_^.  I don't know the ins and outs of the phone in particular but what I've seen and read about it the WMP is much better then most if not all it's competition on so many levels.  I also don't know if a WMP falls under the pretense as a PFS (plays for sure device) or things of that nature.  Again though some sort of Windows Mobile Phone and limited Zune integration makes sense on some level.  It is important to keep in house products working together without losing the identity of the product itself i.e. 360, Zune, Windows Mobile Phones etc.
