Zune to be Launched in Canada on May 12?
Folks! It looks like the Zune Canadian launch is only a few days ahead now. An ad spotted on Craigslist ask for Markerting coordinators to be available from May 12th to June 20th for a marketing blitz.
Microsoft hired CIM (Consumer Impact Marketing) in Canada to represent the Redmond company on their Zune launch in Canada.
Here's an excerpt of the ad:
We are currently seeking a Full-time Coordinator to represent our client Microsoft on their launch of ZUNE in the Canadian marketplace.
Requirements:
* Strong communication, organizational and computer skills
* Experience in merchandising and administation
* Must have a positive attitude, team oriented and have strong leadership skills.
* Must be willing to work 40 hours per week from May 12th-June 20th
Get ready dear Canadian fellows! Zune is coming to town! We still don't have any confirmation on where the Zune will be available and what will we the prices for the Zune 4, Zune 8 and Zune 80.
We know that the Zune 30 will not be available on the Canadian market and that the 4GB and 8GB green Zunes have also been removed from the product line.

Sorry to burst the bubble, but actually it's June 13th.
