According to a CrunchGear's tipster, Microsoft executives have an important meeting today, discussing the basic details and strategies for a Zune (smart) phone project. Based on current Zune's interface it will have wireless connectivity with the Xbox 360 and be ready for release in the 2007 holiday season...

We’ve just received a sound tip that Microsoft is working on its very own phone to be branded under the Zune moniker. Our tipsters inform us that Microsoft execs are in meetings today hammering out details of the device and developing strategies and timescales for its release.

Not so fast....

There is no way they can bring a phone to market that fast. Between carrier testing and FCC approval - not to mention the development of the actual device. Lets keep in mind the Microsoft was shockingly able to get the Zune out the door in 9 months - an that did not have the first two hurdles I mentioned above.

If they are just now talking about what the phone's features and strategy will be - there is no way will will see it by the end of the year.
