Microsoft’s Project Pink Zune-Phones Leaked: Turtle and Pure

After ages of rumours surrounding Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT)’s “Project Pink” and its links to Zune, we now have some pictures of the devices in question. The Pure and the Turtle will be made by Sharp and aimed squarely at the youth market, a forte Microsoft can claim since acquiring the desiginer of the Sidekick, Danger. Zune services and an app store will also be found on the Turtle and Pure, but little else one the specification-front is known. If you take a close look at those screens, it’s difficult to spot any signs of Windows Mobile, but it’s hard to imagine Microsoft using anything else. As for carrier, we had heard Verizon was sniffing around a Zune phone… What do you guys think? Zune Pass-compatible phones for a youth market sound like they could do pretty dang well.
