Microsofts highly-anticipated “Zune” portable media device is set to make its first official appearance at an invite-only press event Sept. 14.

The unveiling will follow the introduction of a completely revamped iPod lineup by Apple just two days earlier.

Although Microsoft itself has remained tight-lipped regarding the iPod competitor, little is not already known about Zune, which is being manufactured by Toshiba.

The device will feature a 30GB hard drive, three-inch TFT LCD, an FM tuner, wireless 802.11 b/g, and USB 2.0 support.

Zune will connect up with a new music service specially designed for the player.
