Default Sync, Zune, WP7

Anyone out there using a WP7 and Zune Pass with Sync? Can you drive and stream from Zune with the Zune Pass?

Even without a Zune, how is the WP7 integration with Sync?

Can't help with WP7 but the zune device itself works well.

It would have been nice if it would display the album cover on the screen while playing each song.

Zune works great. I have the zune pass and yes it will play all of the drm songs. Just be sure to sync your zune once a month so you won't be stuck with outdated song licenses

Yeah, love my Zune and the Zune Pass. I expect that to work well. But it looks like the Zune hardware is being discontinued. I guess the Zune Pass will live on with the WP7 (at least I hope so!), so I'm wondering if the phone will work the same way. And if you can stream it while driving I think that would be just as good as Pandora.

My Zune HD works great with Sync. +1 on having album art though. I think the new MyFordTouch has that (whenever they get around to bringing it to the trucks).

I really hope they don't discontinue the Zune hardware, because it really is superior to my iPod touch in so many ways...

As for WP7, you should be able to stream without problems. Just put Sync into Media > User Device > BT Stereo, and anything playing on the phone will then stream to the truck's radio.
